If we are expecting the hardware to not be in the state we assume to be
or left it in, then maybe we should also keep setting the interrupt enable
bits on each transfer?

Surely we expect to have exclusive use of the controller most of the time.
If it's to handle suspend/resume, shouldn't we be adding power management
callbacks instead? That would reset the controller to a known state when
the system comes out of suspend, including clearing any pending interrupts.

Maxime, anything you want to add? (BTW, Maxime switched email addresses.)
