Yes we could explain hard coded numbers.  Ideally GIC driver would support

Seems like the GIC driver could remap it's own memory but maybe that won't
work across all platforms and then the platform would need to do it.

Why not just add a stub in the xilinx platform for now that remaps the
memory using ioremap and calls the regular GIC initialization?

That function can then easily be moved to common code when another
platform uses it.
