Could we include FW_BUG here to stress that this is a firmware problem?

Absolutely! That's what it now looks like:

[    2.648452] kvm [1]: IPA Size Limit: 40 bits
[    2.649259] [Firmware Bug]: CPU interface incapable of MMIO access
[    2.649620] kvm [1]: disabling GICv2 emulation
[    2.650227] kvm [1]: GIC system register CPU interface enabled
[    2.652004] kvm [1]: vgic interrupt IRQ9
[    2.655623] kvm [1]: VHE mode initialized successfully

Updated version pushed out.

Thanks,

        M.
