It mentions only BXT:ALL, but not mention to GLK.

On Display side we started using the row name for this case, to help
easily finding this later.

ex: "Display WA #0390: skl,kbl"

The number for this apparently is:
WA #0862

Maybe we could use this one to start
/* GT WA #0862: bxt,glk */

GT? GEM?
Unnamed WA #0862?
