I guess I am confused.

I see that there is now handling of the case where the region size is
128Kbytes. But I'm still not seeing the bit which describes that the
GIC-400  has a region size of 128Kbytes. Perhaps the later is somehow
implied by the former. Or perhaps I need to check with the hw team.
