+/**
+ * DOC: MMIO based communication
+ *
+ * The MMIO based communication between Host and GuC uses software scratch
+ * registers, where first register holds data treated as message header,
+ * and other registers are used to hold message payload.
+ *
+ * For Gen9+, GuC uses software scratch registers 0xC180-0xC1B8,
+ * but no H2G command takes more than 8 parameters and the GuC FW
+ * itself uses an 8-element array to store the H2G message.
+ *
+ *      +-----------+---------+---------+---------+
+ *      |  MMIO[0]  | MMIO[1] |   ...   | MMIO[n] |
+ *      +-----------+---------+---------+---------+
+ *      | header    |      optional payload       |
+ *      +======+====+=========+=========+=========+

+ *      +------+----+---------+---------+---------+
+ *
+ * The message header consists of:
+ *
+ * - **type**, indicates message type
+ * - **code**, indicates message code, is specific for **type**
+ * - **data**, indicates message data, optional, depends on **code**
+ *
+ * The following message **types** are supported:
+ *
+ * - **REQUEST**, indicates Host-to-GuC request, requested GuC action code
+ *   must be priovided in **code** field. Optional action specific parameters
+ *   can be provided in remaining payload registers or **data** field.
+ *
+ * - **RESPONSE**, indicates GuC-to-Host response from earlier GuC request,
+ *   action response status will be provided in **code** field. Optional
+ *   response data can be returned in remaining payload registers or **data**
+ *   field.
