Summary

On AmpereOne, the current programming of GITS_BASER2 to individual
allocations per ITS causes a:

panic: APEI Fatal Hardware Error!

This is due to the ITS reporting a BASER2_DATA_ERR error. The GIC-700
expects all GITS_BASER2.Physical_Address fields to match system-wide.

Skip programming any vPE GITS_BASER registers to avoid this crash.

We don't use the vPE table so it's safe to ignore.

Thanks Andrew, could you (or anybody else) help merge that? My commit bit is taking a nap at the moment.

@imp, @andrew, @jhb - I was wondering if one of you could commit this please?
