Some DT enabled platforms may only have the gic or vic included in their match list currently because other interrupt controllers aren't yet converted to DT.

No. I don't think moving this into the gic and vic code just to move it back out later is a good idea. Just looking at the diffstat, the net number of lines removed is not very compelling either.
