I've been trying to promote the idea that we don't include headers from
headers, unless really necessary. It helps with build times by reducing
rebuilds due to changes, but more importantly, it helps with coming up
with abstractions that don't need to look at the guts of other
components.

The above include line pulls in 67 other includes. And it has to look at
the same files a *lot* more times to know not to include them again.

Maybe we need to start being more aggressive about hiding the
abstractions behind the interfaces and headers. Static inlines are
nothing but micro-optimizations that leak abstractions. Do we need
these?

I think it's questionable to claim the parameter is const, when you can
do:

	const struct intel_pxp *const_pxp = something;
	struct intel_pxp *pxp = &pxp_to_gt(const_pxp)->pxp;
