Can we also update this comment to indicate what virt-related
memory regions are being created?

...and a comment about what these regions are for.
What requires these per-core regions anyway? There's no way to
specify them in the device tree bindings for Linux, which AFAIK
only cares about using the "vcpu i/f for this core" registers.
I don't think the GIC-400 has these. (It does have per-cpu
aliases of the GICH_* registers, but this patchset doesn't seem
to implement those.)
