about the GGTT at all; I think it was just unintentionally written in a
roundabout manner when intel_gt was first being introduced in the code.
The reference here first showed up in commit f170523a7b8e ("drm/i915/gt:
Consolidate the CS timestamp clocks").

Actually the most correct thing to do is probably to use
'stream->engine->gt' to ensure we grab the GT actually associated with
the stream's engine.
