I'm aware of the 512 limit (see comment on the patch [1]). This change
was introduced on GICv2/GICv3 because the nr_lines will always be
aligned to 32, although IRQ 1020-1023 are reserved.

512 is a multiple of 32 and unless you have reserved IRQ below 512
and/or your GIC doesn't expose the right number of IRQ, this doesn't
harm and keep the change limited.
