We usually don't care, as the GIC address is provided by the bootloader, 
whether via DT or ACPI (this is certainly what happens on Mustang). 
Whatever is still in the kernel tree is just as dead as the platform it 
describes.

There is no such address. Think of the NS bit as an *address space* 
identifier.
The only reason XGene presents the NS part of the GIC at a different 
address is because XGene is broken enough not to have EL3, hence no 
secure mode. To wire the GIC (and other standard ARM IPs) to the core, 
the designers simply used the CPU NS signal as an address bit.
On your platform, the NS bit does exist. I strongly suppose that it 
isn't wired to the GIC. Please talk to your SoC vendor for whether iot 
is possible to work around this.
