I didn't get the idea of flushing g2h worker here. Moreover AFAIK tlb 
invalidation is handled in fast path xe_guc_ct_fast_path i.e. in IRQ 
handler itself. Is this change solving the issue.

static inline void xe_guc_ct_irq_handler(struct xe_guc_ct *ct)
{
         if (!xe_guc_ct_enabled(ct))
                 return;

         wake_up_all(&ct->wq);
         queue_work(ct->g2h_wq, &ct->g2h_worker);
         xe_guc_ct_fast_path(ct);
}
