6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Marc Zyngier maz@kernel.org
commit 773c05f417fa14e1ac94776619e9c978ec001f0b upstream.
It appears that the relatively popular RK3399 SoC has been put together using a large amount of illicit substances, as experiments reveal that its integration of GIC500 exposes the *secure* programming interface to non-secure.
This has some pretty bad effects on the way priorities are handled, and results in a dead machine if booting with pseudo-NMI enabled (irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=1) if the kernel contains 18fdb6348c480 ("arm64: irqchip/gic-v3: Select priorities at boot time"), which relies on the priorities being programmed using the NS view.
Let's restore some sanity by going one step further and disable security altogether in this case. This is not any worse, and puts us in a mode where priorities actually make some sense.
Huge thanks to Mark Kettenis who initially identified this issue on OpenBSD, and to Chen-Yu Tsai who reported the problem in Linux.
