+ * intel_gt_mcr_wait_for_reg_fw - wait until MCR register matches expected state
+ * @gt: GT structure
+ * @reg: the register to read
+ * @mask: mask to apply to register value
+ * @value: value to wait for
+ * @fast_timeout_us: fast timeout in microsecond for atomic/tight wait
+ * @slow_timeout_ms: slow timeout in millisecond
+ *
+ * This routine waits until the target register @reg contains the expected
+ * @value after applying the @mask, i.e. it waits until ::
+ *
+ *     (intel_gt_mcr_read_any_fw(gt, reg) & mask) == value
+ *
+ * Otherwise, the wait will timeout after @slow_timeout_ms milliseconds.
+ * For atomic context @slow_timeout_ms must be zero and @fast_timeout_us
+ * must be not larger than 20,0000 microseconds.
+ *
+ * This function is basically an MCR-friendly version of
+ * __intel_wait_for_register_fw().  Generally this function will only be used
+ * on GAM registers which are a bit special --- although they're MCR registers,
+ * reads (e.g., waiting for status updates) are always directed to the primary
+ * instance.
+ *
+ * Note that this routine assumes the caller holds forcewake asserted, it is
+ * not suitable for very long waits.
+ *
+ * Return: 0 if the register matches the desired condition, or -ETIMEDOUT.
