Sure, I guess BG3 is also using GIC?

You already re-replied to that. I leave L2X0 here, BG3 will be
different, as you stated.

 From a quick view into Cortex-A9 MPCore TRM, I cannot see why it
shouldn't be there even for single-core. If you can get more info,
that would be great.

Actually, IIRC smp_twd does not compile without SMP set, so the above
should at least be 'HAVE_ARM_TWD if SMP'. If you shrink MULTI_V7 down
to non-SMP cores, you can disable it and it will fail to compile.

Ok.

Right, that's already in the comment right above l2x0_of_init ;)
