FYI:
I've not seen a spurious interrupts notification on
arm64/aarch64.
I have seen such on cortex-a7 (the armv6/7 examples
that I have access to are this: so just armv7).
For cortex-a7 I build with the following local experiment
for information gathering:
# svnlite diff /usr/src/sys/arm/arm/gic.c

It has never reported a non-1023 IRQ.
Quoting arm_gic_architecture_specification.pdf (various places about the 1023
IRQ figure):
• A processor reads the GICC_IAR and obtains the interrupt ID 1023,
indicating a spurious interrupt. The processor can return from its interrupt
service routine without writing to its GICC_EOIR.
The spurious interrupt ID indicates that the original interrupt is no longer
pending, typically because another target processor is handling it.
and . . .
• 1023 This value is returned to a processor, in response to an
interrupt acknowledge, if there is no pending interrupt with sufficient
priority for it to be signaled to the processor.
and . . .
GICC_IAR read GICC_CTLR.AckCtl
