Good point, thanks for pointing this out. I have a question, do we really have some SoCs without banked registers? I ask this question because we can do something for GIC cpu interface with per cpu offset, but ACPI do NOT support per cpu offset for GIC distributor. > Also, the variable appears to be write-only.

Same in the other functions. Ok, I will update them all in next version.
