I've given this some more thought, and I think they actually belong
here. The arm-gic-v3.h file is really relevant to GICv3 used in v3
mode. Here, we're using the GICv3 HW to inject GICv2-style interrupts
(ID limited to 1023, CPUID present in the LR...).

So I'd rather keep them here than expose it to the outside world, as I
fear this would be rather confusing.

Thanks,

        M.
