[PATCH v4 02/10] AArch{32, 64}: use KVM_CREATE_DEVICE & co to instanciate the GIC

From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier at arm.com>

As of 3.14, KVM/arm supports the creation/configuration of the GIC through
a more generic device API, which is now the preferred way to do so.

Plumb the new API in, and allow the old code to be used as a fallback.

[Andre: Rename some functions on the way to differentiate between
creation and initialisation more clearly and fix error path.]
