I think that for consistency we always want to keep IRQ and FIQ in-sync,
even when using GIC priorities. So when handling a pseudo-NMI we should
unmask DAIF.DA and leave DAIF.IF masked.

In that case there's one more, in daifflags.h:local_daif_restore():

			/*
			 * If interrupts are disabled but we can take
			 * asynchronous errors, we can take NMIs
			 */
			flags &= PSR_I_BIT;
			pmr = GIC_PRIO_IRQOFF;

And a minor related one: should init_gic_priority_masking() WARN if FIQ is
masked too? This probably goes with the above.

I think it should, yes.

Done for v3 then. Thanks!
