Add GSC proxy driver. It to allows messaging between GSC component
on Intel on board graphics card and CSE device.
alan:nit: isn't "Intel integrated GPU" clearer than "Intel on-board graphics card"?
Same thing for the Kconfig description later (or am i missing something else here).

Will change

+         MEI GSC proxy enables messaging between GSC service on

alan:nit: same as above

alan: nit: not sure if we should be checking for !size here - i do see that next patch
is checking for this from i915 side of the interface... but just wasnt sure which is the prefered style
(in terms of where to check for this condition). Either way, its a nit for me since i traced down
all the way to mei_cl_alloc_cb and it looks like mei bus can tolerate zero sized messages.

alan: nit: same as in the 'send' above,.. not sure if we should be checking for !size here...
or perhaps 0 sized recv is supported.

AFAICS the lower level of the mei code do allow for size 0 for both send and recv. Also, this is the same check as what we do for the PXP component.

alan: do we care if both these parents are non-null? i notice in other mei component
drivers match functions we do check that.

Those should always both be non-NULL, since both the mei and the GFX device have the PCI bus as parent (and the previous check on pdev ensures those are the 2 devices we're handling at this point).

alan: apologies for the newbie question, but why are we using UUID for the gsc_proxy
as opposed to GUID like the other mei components? i am not sure if i read the right
archived patch review but it sounded like GUID is for internal to kernel only whereas
UUID is for external too? (in which case why are we not using GUID for gsc-proxy?)
Consider this a non-blocking inquiry since i assume mei folks have reviewed this
prior and this is an explicit design decision that I'm just not versed on.

AFAICS all other mei components use UUID_LE as well. The code was updated from GUID to UUID_LE in:
