While this looks to work, I wonder if we could manage this all in the
config ? i.e.,
Use an extra field, say config->retain_single_shot_status, which
defaults to 0 and is always cleared once we pass through enable_hw.

} else {
config->retain_single_shot_status = 0;
}
So, the default behavior is "clear" the status and can be explicitly
requested by the CPU PM code to leave it alone. We could do this as
a separate cleanup.
