Yes, when SCR_EL3.FIQ=1, but gic_nonsecure_priorities is enabled when
SCR_EL3.FIQ=0 (gic_has_group0()). In that case ICC_RPR_EL1 returns (what I assume
to be) the highest priority interrupt from ICC_AP0R_EL1, ICC_AP1R_EL1NS and
ICC_AP1R_EL1S. Isn't that the secure view (or Distributor value) of the priority?

Yes, I was also very surprised myself, I was certain that I tested my patch on the
model with PMU NMIs. Here's what I did to get this result, I would very much
appreciate anyone pointing out what I did wrong here.

I don't see how that is the case - ICC_RPR_EL1 contains the priority value as seen
by the Distributor, and non-secure priorities get right-shifted when
SCR_EL3.FIQ=0, meaning that GICD_INT_NMI_PRI becomes (GICD_INT_NMI_PRI >> 1) |
0x80 in the Distributor. Can you elaborate where I'm contradicting myself?
Thanks,
Alex
