I was thinking more of doing a bulk-renaming patch later to make all the 
GuC functions use a more consistent naming scheme, probably along the 
lines of "<prefix><topic>_<object>_<operation>", where <prefix> is empty 
for local functions or intel_/i915_ for externally-visible ones, <topic> 
is probably "guc" for all the functions in the loader and submission 
code, <object> is the class we're manipulating (if it's not the GuC 
itself) and <operation> is what we're doing to it. Fairly standard 
object-based RPN naming, in fact.

Many functions are already named this way, but there's still some legacy 
of Alex's original style which is more topic-verb-object.

So gem_allocate_guc_obj() would become guc_gem_object_alloc(). But I 
probably won't do it until I've finished all the other GuC enhancements ;)
