why not report ENXIO as an error?  If probing the vgic fails due to
being unable to request the irq or something similar, then surely your
system has and error and this should be reported.

This may be more nicely implemented by letting the vgic init/probe
functions set the vgic_present, or maybe better yet, just export a
function from vgic.c:

bool kvm_vgic_present(void)
{
	return vgic_ops != NULL;
}
