This can't be done higher up because of the interruptible wait.

Unless we change the patch series to move the waiting for hw_done to a separate step and get rid of the stall argument to swap_state once everything is converted. This could be useful for all drivers that have some kind of setup, because we could move the wait up slightly to suit the drivers needs.
