Hi,

This series brings gen11 interrupt handling closer to what
we have with previous gens. Namely the early releasing of
master intr to reduce interrupt latency.

Also cleanups in guc interrupts and identity selector
handling are included.

Code size shrinks a little:
add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/4 up/down: 0/-156 (-156)
Function                                     old     new   delta
gen11_irq_postinstall                        651     623     -28
gen11_irq_reset                             1711    1681     -30
gen11_irq_handler                            880     836     -44
gen11_gt_engine_identity                     224     170     -54
Total: Before=1281048, After=1280892, chg -0.01%

Interrupt handling latency is improved generally as measured with
gem_exec_nop, the odd one in the bunch being basic-sequential which
suffers almost 11%. The oddity is that the sequential, which is same
test with longer timeout, showing 2% improvement.
