Is this statement still true? I believe no MMIO H2G is over 4 DWs (given 
the limitation of the new gen11+ scratch regs), while CTB messages can 
be longer than 8 DWs.

typo: preffered -> preferred

See comment above. Reduce this to 4?

This could use a note in the commit message to remark that we have no 
users for the returned data yet and therefore nothing will break if we 
change what we return through it.

Apart from the nits, the logic looks good to me.
