i think there are difference between "restoring" and "re-enabling".
"restoring" - assume saving smth.. then restore saving value.
I'm saving & restoring one bit here.

But I can do just "re-enabling" -
   writel(GT_CONTROL_TIMER_ENABLE, gt_base + GT_CONTROL);
and then I don't need to save anything. It will work with current
code.
