Do you boot form EL2? If so, you'd also need this:

  static void gic_eoimode1_eoi_irq(struct irq_data *d)
  {
+	u32 hwirq = gic_irq(d);
+
  	/* Do not deactivate an IRQ forwarded to a vcpu. */
  	if (irqd_is_forwarded_to_vcpu(d))
  		return;

+	if (hwirq < 16)
+		hwirq = this_cpu_read(sgi_intid);
+
  	writel_relaxed(gic_irq(d), gic_cpu_base(d) + GIC_CPU_DEACTIVATE);
  }

If none of that works, we'll need some additional traces. On the other
hand, I just booted this on a GICv2-based system, and it worked fine...
