oops, it was just copy/past, you're correct, with new unified firmware,
all MMIO H2G are up to 4 DWs

I hope this will do the work:

"Since some of the new MMIO actions may use DATA0 from MMIO HXG
response, we must update intel_guc_send_mmio() to copy full response,
including HXG header. There will be no impact to existing users as all
of them are only relying just on return code."
