When creating a GICv3 devicetree node, we currently insert the
redistributor-stride and #redistributor-regions properties, with fixed
values which are actually the architected ones. But those properties are
optional and only needed to cover for broken platforms, where the values
differ from the architected one. This will never be the case for the
constructed DomU memory map.
So we drop those properties altogether and provide a clean and architected
GICv3 DT node for DomUs.

Hi,

AFAICT, patch #1-#6 were sent separately and were reviewed. I will skip 
them for now, but please address the comments on the next version.

Cheers,
