Frankly, this patch adds no value. Are we going to add "arm,cortex-a12-gic", "arm,cortex-a17-gic", "arm,cortex-a53-gic", "arm,cortex-a57-gic"? And that's just to mention the ARM Ltd cores...
Instead, how about defining a generic "arm,gic" property, and mandate that new DT files are using that? We can always use a more precise compatible for quirks.
Mark, what do you think? I think this has been discussed in the past already.
