I don't personally like this. Where in an irq context do we grab this
lock? FW probably shouldn't ever be grabbed from an irq context. I see
this was changed from a mutex to spin lock in which is pretty suspect
IMO.

'drm/xe: Use spinlock in forcewake instead of mutex'  

If this really needs to be a spin lock I'd rather have versions of
xe_force_wake_get/put that called from non-atomic contexts (e.g. use
spin_lock_irq) and atomic contexts (e.g. use spin_lock) rather than
using spin_lock_irqsave.
