"Running" belongs to a different set of states, indicating the current 
state of the uC. The ones added here are about what we plan to do with 
the GuC, not what the current state is, so I disagree that it makes 
sense to add "running" here.

How do you want them added? We don't usually do that for autogenerated 
functions (there is an example of that further down in this file).
