Why is the GIC hardcoded? How are you going to support other interrupt
controllers?

Aside from the incorrect sizes, how do you plan to address the other
regions that the GICv2 specification describes?

Why can't you do the GIC init in the GIC code? We've tried hard to make
interrupt controllers discoverable and self contained. What are you
going to do when ACPI adds GICv3 to the mix? I don't really think this
model (shoving everything into the core ACPI code) is sustainable in the
long run...
