D'oh! I really need a tool for this! Thanks, will fix it.

without having HUC_LOADING_AGENT_GUC bit set to 1, the module reloading with both GuC and HuC FW will fail since we need to set this bit to 1 for
HuC FW uploading.

Since HUC_LOADING_AGENT_GUC bit has no impact on GuC FW uploading, this
patch updates the register updating code to make sure the WOPCM offset
register is always locked with HUC_LOADING_AGENT_GUC bit set to 1 which will guarantee successful uploading of both GuC and HuC FW. We will further
take care of the locked values in the following enhancement patch.

while we can unconditionally set HUC_AGENT bit, there is no need to verify
it unless we are using HuC, so we can consider leaving old mask intact.
The idea is to verify the written values are exactly we want, so I think it better
to keep doing it in this way.

Hmm, but then instead of being more flexible, you're unnecessary restricting
yourself to require HUC_AGENT bit, even if you don't need it - recall the
theoretical scenario with bad bios that already locked that register.

Hmm. Actually my thought is pretty simple here. we want to always set this
bit so we always keep checking it. For the fault bios handling, my thought is
if this reg was locked without HUC_AGENT bit when USES_HUC is true. we will
return error - the 3/3 patch is taking care of this.

This seems to be little inconsistent with earlier patch where you try to
support much more different scenario (from no HuC fw to use HuC fw)
My 1/3 patch is trying to support enable_guc=1->3->1 without any FW changes
on the FS while work as an enhancement patch to handle more complicated
cases for the theoretical scenario - faulty bios.
