What do you mean by that? Do you foresee a *GICv3* implementation on
the realm side?

Why would you base the status of the RDs on that of the distributor?

I really don't like this.

If we have to go down the route of identifying whether the GIC needs
encryption or not based on the platform, then maybe we should bite the
bullet and treat it as a first class device, given that we expect
devices to be either realm or non-secure.
