I second Michal here, the naming of the functions is rather poor.
Something like intel_guc_fetch_firmware would be more descriptive.

Making it overly generic when we don't have other use yet, will cause
more churn when we get more use (because fortune telling was never our
thing). I'd rather see rather standalone functions, which are then be
called from central point where more can be added, without changing the
existing ones. So this applies to intel_uc_init, too.

It'll be easier to add these generic functions iff we start repeating
calls to a bunch of functions, and we can then see patterns emerging.
