For gvt, we need to disable guc submission in guest on current hw.
I just want to send one using current enable_guc_loading but if changed
to guc_submission/enable_huc later, I'll hold till that settle down.

To support HuC for guest, we will need to add extra pvinfo, so won't
allow guest kernel to load huc firmware but tell guest driver that HuC
is ready for use.

thanks
