I guess the question is whether we just want to handle the one case
where we've already seen a BIOS snapshot screw up (i.e., specifically on
GT1 during resume), or do we want to make this a general sanitization
that we do on both GTs at both load and resume, just to be safe?  Given
that the hardware team has indicated no external agents would be
expected to be using steering at the point the driver is
loading/resuming, maybe it's best to always do the sanitization on
platforms that have a hardware semaphore?
