In all likelihood we will do a few hundred errnoneous register
operations if we do a single invalid register access whilst the device
is suspended. As each instance causes a WARN, this floods the system
logs and can make the system unresponsive.
The warning was first introduced in
commit b2ec142cb0101f298f8e091c7d75b1ec5b809b65

drm/i915: call assert_device_not_suspended at gen6_force_wake_work
and despite the claims the WARN is still encountered in the wild today.
