alan: splitting out a couple registers from COMMON_GEN9BASE_GLOBAL into GEN9_GLOBAL
doesn't seem to communicate the intent of fix for this patch. This is more of a naming,
thing and i am not sure what counter-proposal will work well in terms of readibility.
One idea: perhaps we rename "COMMON_GEN9BASE_GLOBAL" to "COMMON_GEN9PLUS_BASE_GLOBAL"
and rename GEN9_GLOBAL to COMMON_GEN9LEGACY_GLOBAL. so we would have two gen9-global
with a clear distinction in naming where one is "GEN9PLUS" and the other is "GEN9LEGACY".

But since this is a list-naming thing, i am okay either above change... OR...
keeping the same but with the condition of adding a comment under
COMMON_GEN9BASE_GLOBAL and GEN9_GLOBAL names that explain the differences where one
is gen9-legacy and the other is gen9-and-future that carries over to beyond Gen9.
(side note: coding style wise, is it possible to add the comment right under the #define
line as opposed to under the entire list?)
