SubjectRe: [PATCH -next] irq-chip/gic-v3-its: Fixed an issue where the ITS executes the residual commands in the queue again when the ITS wakes up from sleep mode.
Please don't top-post.

This cannot work. By doing a memset on the command queue, you are
only feeding crap to the ITS (command 0 simply does not exist).
Consider yourself lucky that it doesn't just lock-up.

What needs to happen is the restore sequence that is already in the
driver, so that the command queue is in a sane state before re-enabling
the ITS.
