GGIV is a method name used by many vendors to read a GPIO pin. "Get GPIO Input
Value" or something like that.

Quite likely the GPIO pin in question is attached to HPD of an HDMI or DP port.
So if an external display is attached, GGIV(0x01080001) should return 1 and the
HDA is exposed, else it's hidden.

If the GPIO pin in question is on the PCH then you can download the spec for
the PCH from Intel's website to verify that the MMIO space at 0x01080001 is a
GPIO block. The GPIO pin could also be on the Nvidia card itself, in that case
physical address 0x01080001 would belong to a resource of the GPU's PCI device.
