First of all: yes, this is a tricky problem and I like the general
idea of adding interrupts_enabled to help make things a little more
sane.

Is there any test case to exercise the WARN you mentioned above? Is it
possible to write one? Is there any bug reported on that WARN? It
would be nice to see some "Testcase:" and "Bugzilla:" tags in this
patch.

Don't you also need to "dev_priv->rps.pm_iir = 0" before the return
above? Just in case things were canceled after rps.work was launched,
but before it was ran.

But then, what about the users that call intel_disable_gt_powersave()
without calling intel_suspend_gt_powersave()? Don't they get problems
because the interrupts are still enabled?
