Interrupt deactivation feature is not dependent on whether
hyp-mode is available or not.

We can use GICC_DIR even if CPU does not have
virtualization extension. Also, we can use GICV_DIR
when running as Guest or VM.

I think "supports_deactivate" should depend on
the GIC compatible string.

This will not work on APM X-Gene because, for
X-Gene first CPU page is at 0x78020000 and
second CPU page is at 0x78030000.

Ian had send-out a patch long time back to extend
GIC dt-bindings for addressing this issue.
