agreed. What about putting it in vgic_io_device then?.

Well, looked to me more natural to compute the information once when
registering the rdist into its region instead of each time we read the
RDIST TYPER. Especially because at that moment we map the redist, we
need to know anyway if we have sufficient space to put it.

Sorry I don't understand your comment above.
