Any reason why these functions are inlined in this include?

Also - not related to your patch - while gicv3_class_name() is
self-explicit, gic_class_name() isn't (to me at least).

There are many check for gic_version 1/2/3 in virt.c, which we could
clean using more generic functions such gic_class_name(int gic_version)
and Co.

Alistair/Edgar:
Why the ZynqMP is not using the GICv3 for the APU? I remember hearing
something about not fully implemented so not working correctly.
