This generally looks fine, but:

As mentioned on the prior patch, I think we shouldn't bother parsing the
secure interrupt, given the problem with the GSIV, and the fact that we
shouldn't need it in Linux.

... I think we should check the flag on the relevant interrupt, though
that's worth clarifying.

Why don't we log this in the code that would try to initialise the MMIO
timer? We can still fail after this.

Thanks,
Mark.
