During runtime suspend this won't add any overhead since the context
done interrupt happened already (unless there is a bug somewhere else).

Hm, but we still need to re-check and bail out if not idle with
struct_mutex held, since gt.active_requests could go 0->1->0 before
taking struct_mutex? I can rewrite things with that check added, using
the above.
