GIC-38539: GIC faults when accessing reserved GICD_TYPER2 register

Applies to (covered with iidr mask below):

ThunderX: CN88xx
OCTEON TX: CN83xx, CN81xx
OCTEON TX2: CN93xx, CN96xx, CN98xx, CNF95xx*

Issue: Access to GIC reserved registers results in an exception.
Notes:
1) This applies to other reserved registers too.
2) The errata number is unique over all IP blocks, so a macro
CAVIUM_ERRATUM_38539 is ok.
