Odd, MMIO writes should trigger DC6 exit, which always results in PSR
exit. If the hardware isnt't in DC6, then I can imagine CRC enabling
not causing a PSR exit.

Can you include the test name and platform in the commit message?

Jani S had reported the issue, Cc'ing him.

The PSR2->PSR1 switching gives us the same window before CRC enabling
as force_hw_tracking_exit(). My question was about if that window is
sufficient.

Yeah, it should be okay. Please document in the commit message the idea
is that we rely on the idle frame counter to have not expired before
CRC is enabled and we are only kicking the hardware out of PSR1. Since
what this patch does is different from what psr_exit() implements, I
think it makes sense to clarify what exit means.

With the commit message fixed, this looks okay to me but let's see if
the timeouts go away.
