It's not very clear to me how the GMU firmware would be dealing with this? Does
anyone have an idea whether the GMU makes any bandwidth decisions? Or is it just
a static configuration and it just enables/disables a TCS?

I think that we can query the address from the cmd-db, but we have to know the
bcm names and the path. All the BCM/TCS information looks to be very low-level
and implementation specific, so exposing it through an API is not very good,
but hard-coding all this information is not good either.

Thanks,
Georgi
