I'd prefer to keep it. The devcoredump captures all registers, while
CTL_FLUSH points to the actual bit without the need to analyze the
coredump. At the very least, it allows us to analyze whether the issue
is the same or not (compare SSPP_DMA2 on c630 vs LM_1 on sdm660)
without looking into the dump.
