The Dom0 and DomUs logic for the dom0less configuration in create_dom0()
and arch_create_domUs() has been updated to account for extended SPIs
when supported by the hardware and enabled with CONFIG_GICV3_ESPI. These
changes ensure the proper calculation of the maximum number of SPIs and
eSPIs available to Dom0 and DomUs in dom0less setups.
When eSPIs are supported by the hardware and CONFIG_GICV3_ESPI is
enabled, the maximum number of eSPI interrupts is calculated using the
ESPI_BASE_INTID offset (4096) and is limited to 1024, with 32 IRQs
subtracted. To ensure compatibility with DomUs (Dom0 setups) domains,
where this adjustment is applied by the toolstack during domain
creation, while for Dom0 or DomUs in Dom0, it is handled directly during
VGIC initialization. If eSPIs are not supported, the calculation
defaults to using the standard SPI range, with a maximum value of
960 interrupt lines, as it works currently.

So we have almost (?) identical code and big comments in both 
create_dom0() and arch_create_domUs().
I was thinking, wouldn't it be better if we put this into a helper? This 
way, I think, we will reduce the number of GICv3-specific #ifdef-s in 
common domain construction code and will not need to worry about keeping 
these places in sync when updating the check/comment.
Something like below to be applied on top of your patch (not build-tested):

Also, if VGIC_DEF_MAX_SPI (or whatever name you agreed on) is not 
supposed to be used outside of vgic.h, I would even consider dropping it
and using "ESPI_BASE_INTID + min(gic_number_espis(), 1024U) - 32" (to 
reduce one more #ifdef in the header).
P.S. I might be wrong, but it feels to me, that description for 
"nr_spis" in docs/man/xl.cfg.5.pod.in needs a update within your series 
(it mentions that "Max is 960 SPIs").

Okay, I will add one more patch with documentation update. Thank you. Best regards, Leonid.
Hello Oleksandr,
Thank you for your review. It was really helpful.

Yes, I agree with you - it looks much better. I will check your changes, 
and if everything is okay, I will apply them to V4.
