I guess what Chris means is that execlist broke idle detection (by
retiring in a separate work item, but not integrating with the idle
handling in the existing one). This patch gets us half-way there but still
doesn't really integrate things back fully.

We probably need (again) the s/execlist_item/request/ refactor to make
this happen for real. Since that's what Chris' patch does he featured the
link to it as an endpoint guideline I think.

Or am I completely missing the point again?

Cheers, Daniel
