The current driver ACPI probe fails on hardware which has GICv4

fixes the issue by registering the same probe function for GICv4
hardware.

Changes since v1:
    - Edit commit text.
    - Fix BUG() in xen/arch/arm/domain.c

Please see my latest comment on the previous version [1].

To go further, the ACPI tables may not represent the actual hardware. It is possible to have ACPI tables describing a GICv2 whilst the real hardware is a GICv3.

Xen will use the GICv2 driver and not the GICv3. So the helper will return GIC_V2 (and not GIC_V3).
