How is a CI timeout value relevant?

Plus from the commit message it sounds like the point of wait is so 
submission to gsc does not fail if loading is still in progress, not 
that the CI times out. So what is the main problem?

Ugh.

If it ever becomes an empty array just zap this whole code and not have 
these checks.

Also, no i915 is a possibility?

But actually.. please don't add the function table generalization unless 
it is already known something else is coming to be plugged into it.

Why does this need to be top level selftests and not just a wait for 
intel_gsc_uc_fw_proxy_init_done in the tests where it is relevant, via 
some helper or something?
