history isn't linear and this commit, the way it is now, didn't exist 1
month ago, so your timescale is misleading. has_master_unit_irq was what
we thought we would need to share as much code as possible.

The biggest reason to fork the irq handler is actually not DG1 nor DG2,
but XEHPSDV and without those changes it would basically be a 95% copy
of the gen11 handler... for someone not looking to what is in the
pipeline, it can be a perfect argument to "consolidate these into a
single handler".
