The solution is to make IS_ELKHARTLAKE() mean ELK and only ELK.

Since we are talking about the TLA for JSL in the other patch, for
elkhartlake it is EHL, not ELK. ELK is something else, but I'm not sure
what:

$ git grep -w ELK -- drivers/gpu/drm/
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_stolen.c: IS_GM45(i915) ? "CTG" : "ELK", reg_val);
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/gem/i915_gem_stolen.c: * Whether ILK really reuses the ELK register for this is unclear.
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c: * Not 100% sure which way ELK should go here as the
drivers/gpu/drm/i915/intel_pm.c: * assume ELK doesn't need this.
