Commit 382c7160d1cd ("hw/intc/arm_gicv3_cpuif: Fix EOIR write access
check logic") added an assert_not_reached() if the guest writes the EOIR
register while no interrupt is active.
It turns out some software does this: EDK2, in GicV3ExitBootServicesEvent(),
unconditionally write EOIR for all interrupts that it manages. This now
causes QEMU to abort when running UEFI on a VM with GICv3. Although it
is UNPREDICTABLE behavior and EDK2 does need fixing, the punishment
seems a little harsh, especially since icc_eoir_write() already
tolerates writes of nonexistent interrupt numbers. Simply ignore
spurious EOIR writes.

logic")
