Doesn't this just stall when parsing the pipe control? Shouldn't
we intead make sure the post-sync write is issued before the semaphore
is signalled? (pipe_control /w post-sync write + second pipe control w/
flush enable?)

Unfortunately it looks like the hardware wouldn't like it if we used
the option to signal the semaphore as a post-sync operation.
