We are not. Support for GICv2 vs v3 should be dealt with
by suitable machine properties (and by figuring out how
we handle probing for which of the two the host kernel
can provide us).

And we're not doing that until we absolutely have to, ie we
have somebody demanding cross-version migration support and
willing to back it up with the necessary battery of testing.
That day will come, but I don't think we're ready for it yet.
