I'm not sure we want to optimise for it, but I'd certainly want to
hear the *rationale* behind not considering the optimisation.

OK, that pretty much rules out doing anything clever (note to self,
check the GIC revision before buying the HW...).

One of my worries is that you're crossing all node boundaries by doing
this, which is going to suck on really large systems. If anything,
you'd be better off with a per-node worker.
It doesn't need to be implemented right now, but I have the feeling
that someone is going to ask.

But the allocation doesn't really take place, does it? You just nick
one LPI. Which by the way I'd rather you pick the last one instead of
the first, as this messes with devices that require ye oldie MultiMSI
and its stupid alignment requirements.
Also, you have its_cpu_init() which takes care of RDs. You could
absolutely add the quirk to the main GIC driver (based on the
distributor IIDR), add a flag to rdists.flags, and let it roll.
Either way, I don't really care. Maybe keeping it centralised is good
enough.

Either that or you could have two entries. Or use the fact that there
is no released r1p1 to your advantage...
