V3: patch for VCN v4.0.0 only
Similar to the previous changes made for VCN v4.0.5, the addition of
register read-back support in VCN v4.0.0 is intended to prevent potential
race conditions, even though such issues have not been observed yet.
This change ensures consistency across different VCN variants and helps
avoid similar issues on newer or closely related GPUs. The overhead
introduced by this read-back is negligible.
