Thanks for this Wei. I like the sysreg framework. It should address
Andre's concerns with asm-maintainability, plus maintain code analysis
tool (cscope) support.

The series looks good to me, so I'll apply it to arm/next and rebase the
gic series on it, using the new sysreg framework everywhere needed.
