nit: questionable comment, how about

  /* Hardware has GICv4? */
or
  /* Do we have GICv4? */

uber nit: the naming here is a bit funny, because we won't be presenting
a GICv4 GIC to the guest, so I'd prefer something like
vgic_supports_direct_msis() or something like that, but this is
obviously not a deal breaker.

Yup, reads much better.

I like it. It has the advantage of not tying the predicate to a
particular direct injection method, should we one day have a GICv6 (no,
please...).

Thanks,
