Why can't we forcibly roll the ball forward and clear the irq if it's a
cancel/abort that's pending? Basically tell the hardware that we
understand it did the job and canceled things out but our sad little CPU
didn't run that irq handler yet. Here have a cookie and get ready for
the next transfer.

if (M_CMD_CANCEL_EN || M_CMD_ABORT_EN) /* but not the other irqs like CMD_DONE or refill fifos */
writel(M_CMD_CANCEL_EN | M_CMD_ABORT_EN, se->base + SE_GENI_M_IRQ_CLEAR);

This would let us limp along and try to send another transfer in the
case that we timed out but the transfer went through by servicing our
own interrupt.

I suppose this could race with the irq handler. Maybe we should grab the
irq lock around the register reads so we can synchronize with the irq
handler and save a fail?
