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.
