    GICv3: GIC-600: Detect GIC-600 at runtime · b4ad365a

    The only difference between GIC-500 and GIC-600 relevant to TF-A is the
    differing power management sequence.
    A certain GIC implementation is detectable at runtime, for instance by
    checking the IIDR register. Let's add that test before initiating the
    GIC-600 specific sequence, so the code can be used on both GIC-600 and
    GIC-500 chips alike, without deciding on a GIC chip at compile time.
    
    This means that the GIC-500 "driver" is now redundant. To allow minimal
    platform support, add a switch to disable GIC-600 support.
