It is not off topic at all, it is bang on topic. I hate the code
as it stands forcing parsing the MADT in multiple places at different
times, that's why I added hooks to set the parking protocol entries
from smp.c and I know that's ugly, I posted it like this on purpose
to get feedback.

Something simpler ? Like stashing the GICC entries (I know we need
permanent table mappings for that to work unless we create data
structures out of the MADT entries with the fields we are interested in)
for possible CPUS ?

Ok.

Page 11 (3.5 Mailbox Access Rules), in the Note
"...On ARM v8 Systems, the OS must map the memory as Device-nGnRnE".

Nope, ioremap takes care of that, everything should be fine.

Did you give this patch a go ?
