It would be much simpler to always log writes here, and only do the real
wirtes in batches when we re-enable the PMU (with appropriate
disable/enable calls in the IRQ handler).

We'd still need special hooks for CCIs which require a special dance to
program them, but all the logic to handle the writes would be in one
place.

This should work, regardless.

Thanks,
Mark.
