Mark,

I am making change in the struct gic_chip_data to contain "v2m_list" (instead of just
a single struct v2m_data). This way, it is clear on how we should handle multiple v2m nodes
within a GIC.

As for the device tree binding, in order to handle multiple v2m nodes within a GIC,
it should not require adding another compatibility ID as it seems too complicate
to have GIC node with multiple compat IDs).

	v2m0 {
		msi-controller;
		reg = <0 0x80000 0 0x10000>;	
	};

	v2m1 {
		msi-controller;
		reg = <0 0x90000 0 0x10000>;
	};

This should work since the PCI controller uses "of_pci_find_msi_chip_by_node()" to locate the msi_chip,
we can simply just use "v2m0" or "v2m1" to specify this.

Thanks,

Suravee.
