Yes, hackers can use this sample code to read the HW register to the
shared memory, but they still can't get the secure content or other
useful information to get the secure content.

There are some protections we made for this action:
1. All the physical address of HW register in the read/write
instruction in secure command buffer need to be defined at whitelist.
2. Reading DRAM address instruction in secure command buffer are
forbidden.
3. The shared memory is used to store the value of cookie which is used
for secure cmdq packet scheduling. So secure GCE thread executing state
will crash by modifying it unexpectedly.

Although hackers could get the value store in the HW register by this
sample code, they still don't know what the HW register stand for and 
what is the meaning of the value they read. Additionally, if they read
unexpectedly values into shared memory, they will corrupt the secure
GCE thread state.
