Although that is probably not part of the GIC h/w (i.e. at a different
address) and should be described in the dts separately. That doesn't
change the GIC binding or the fact that you are using
arch/arm/common/gic.c though. Whether you have a different compatible
string or not is not really the issue. That can already be supported if
necessary. The issue is you are not using the existing GIC binding as a
starting point and that has implications on every node using a GIC
interrupt.
