Yeah, makes sense. This is an old patch. Once upon a time the PMC driver was
going to use the IPC to access some registers but we were able to get them from
elsewhere. The patch was brought back for the TSN use case. But you're correct
that arch/x86/platform/intel makes more sense if the function is to be exported
now and doesn't require to PMC driver to discover the interface. We'll do that.

Sure. Thanks.
