This is a really neat idea!

Can we have a #define for the number CPUs supported by the GIC? It gets
used a fair amount in this patch for loop bounds etc.

Making the mask a u8 and using readb_relaxed here makes this bit of code
clearer to me (and the GIC apparently allows such an access to this
register).
