[Teres Alexis, Alan Previn]

Considering the only request i have below is touching up of existing comments (as
far as this patch is concerned), and since the rest of the code looks good, here is
my R-b - but i hope you can anwser my newbie question at the bottom:

also, since we will (i hope) be adding several comments (alongside the new
version objects under intel_gsc_uc structure) in the patch #3 about what
their differences are and which one we care about and when they get populated,
perhaps we can minimize the information here and redirect to that other
comment... OR ... we can minimize the comments in patch #3 and redirect here
(will be good to have a single location with detailed explaination in the
comments and a redirect-ptr from the other location since a reader would
most likely stumble onto those questions from either of these locations).

alan: more of a newbie question from myself: considering this is a new firmware
we are adding, is there some kind of requirement to provide a link to the patch
targetting the linux firmware repo that is a dependency of this series?
or perhaps we should mention in the series that merge will only happen after
that patch gets merged (with a final rev that includes the patch on
the fw-repo side?). Just trying to understand the process.
