Jani is not happy with this abstraction because it still creates some dependency and also no with the name intel_gt_pcode_ in the functions... He has some valid points. I believe the right way to do this is to keep intel_pcode totally clean from intel_gt and only receive intel_uncore as the argument. Then, if needed we create display/intel_display_pcode and/or gt/intel_gt_pcode with the needed abstractions... but better with none I'd say.
