Please change WA to workaround in subject (there are too many possible things it could be an abbreviation of to make it simple to read :)

Timer interrupt cannot be reported after EDK2 commit 7989300, for GIC on D02/D03 is not fully ARM GIC compliant. The issue has been fixed on newer chips so we use a WA for D02 and D03 only.
workaround
On D02 and D03, IRQ will be latched in GIC logic except virutal timer interrupt IRQ #27, so we change to use virtual timer instead of physical in UEFI.

This whole block is a very useful comment to describe an otherwise non-obvious change, thanks.

Out of interest - why is this added for AARCH64 only? Does the platform build and function properly for ARM, and is this workaround then not needed there?

For my part, with these minor fixes, I'm happy with this patch. Ard: do you agree that this is the best fix for the problem?
