You move qmp_query_gic_capabilities() from target/arm/arm-qmp-cmds.c (in
arm_system_ss) to hw/intc/arm_gic_qmp.c (in specific_ss when
CONFIG_ARM).

Both _ss are target-dependent.  In my testing, both get only compiled
for target arm and aarch64.  Obvious for arm-qmp-cmds.c in
arm_system_ss.  Less so for arm_gic_qmp.c in specific_ss; I guess the
CONFIG_ARM does the trick there.  Correct?
