Steps:
------
1. Boot
2. Reboot several times
3. Check GuC load status

Actual result
--------------
3. Sometimes GuC does not load:
Jul  5 16:56:27 BXTP5 kernel: [    1.689144] [drm:intel_guc_setup] GuC fw status: path i915/bxt_guc_ver8_7.bin, fetch SUCCESS, load NONE

but 5 minutes later, on the next reboot cycle:

Jul  5 17:01:44 BXTP5 kernel: [    1.711802] i915 0000:00:02.0: Direct firmware load for i915/bxt_guc_ver8_7.bin failed with error -2

Expected result:
----------------
3. GuC successfully loads each time

Info
-----
From Dave, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96526#c38:
The kernel logs for each cycle look generally similar, but the order of some operations is not identical. In particular, the appearance of the MMC devices can come before OR after the attempt to load the GuC firmware.
