No denying this is a problem.

The problem with this patch is the gicv is really 8K. The reason you
would map at a 60K offset (0xf000), and why we do on our SOC, is so that
the 8K gicv would pick up the last 4K from the first page and the first
4K from the next page. With your patch it is impossible to map all 8K
of the gicv with 64K pages.
My SOC which works fine with kvm now will go to not working with kvm
after this patch.
