From trawling through the code (see the "A lot of comments" change) I
found that "tcs_in_use" was only kept up-to-date for ACTIVE_ONLY TCSs.
...yet tcs_is_free() was checking the variable called from
tcs_invalidate() and tcs_invalidate() is only used for non-ACTIVE_ONLY
TCSs.

Let's change tcs_invalidate() to just check the "RSC_DRV_STATUS"
register, which was presumably the important part.

It also feels like for ACTIVE_ONLY TCSs that it probably wasn't
important to check the "RSC_DRV_STATUS".  We'll keep doing it just in
case but we'll add a warning if it ever actually mattered.

After other RPMH email threads, it's possible that this patch isn't
quite right.  ...but also the code wasn't quite right before.

Specifically if we have 0 active TCSs then it's possible that we've
used a wake TCS to send an active-only request.  That would be a case
where "tcs_in_use" might be set and we'd need to make sure that
tcs_invalidate() checks it.  However:

1. We need to add locking to tcs_invalidate() since "tcs_in_use" is
protected by drv->lock and tcs_invalidate() didn't grab that lock.

2. We should add documentation explaining the situation.


I'm still waiting on overall review / testing of my series, but I'll
put it on my list to address this for v2.
