This is exactly the kind of branching we want to avoid. Purpose of the
GuC is to hide per-Gen differences, not to cause them :)

The new interface code should just be GuC interface code (not refer to
ICL or any generation specifically), then pre-Gen11 platforms just won't
have a drm-tip compatible firmware until -- well -- they do have it.

So for the series, just axe the old interface and replace it in-place.
Makes the review of the interface differences much more effective, too.
