Hardware using GICv2 needs to create a P2M mapping of 8KB GICv2 area
when the domain is created. Considering the worst case of page tables
and keep a buffer, populate 16 pages as the default value to the P2M
pages pool in arch_domain_create() at the domain creation stage to
satisfy the GICv2 requirement.

This should also be backported to 4.13, 4.14, 4.15 and 4.16.
