So the wait command has two version, one is wait and then clear event,
another is wait and not clear event. The name of cmdq_pkt_wfe() is 'wait
for event', so it's trivial that we think it does not clear event. I've
three suggestion for this:

1. Let cmdq_pkt_wfe() wait and not clear event, and
cmdq_pkt_wfe_clear_event() wait and clear event.

or 
2. Let cmdq_pkt_wfe() has a parameter to indicate that clear event or
not after wait.

or
3. Let cmdq_pkt_wfe() wait and not clear event, and not provide wait and
clear event version. For DRM and MDP, I think both just need wait and
not clear event.

CK
