You probably want to add a comment that in multi-link operation the
actual bank_switch happens later and is done in a synchronized manner.
This is lost if you just move code around and move the bank_switch into
a loop.
I am actually no longer clear just looking at this code on when the
bank_switch happens (i know we've discussed this before but I am trying
to find out just based on this v2 instead of projecting how I think it
should work):
In Patch 6/6 it's pretty obvious that the bank switch happens when the
SyncGO bit is set, but there is no comment or explanation on how we
reach the intel_post_bank_switch() routine once for all masters handling
a stream when everything is based on loops. Clearly the
intel_pre_bank_switch is called multiple times (once per master), I
guess I am missing what the trigger is for the intel_post_bank_switch()
routine to be invoked?
