The following ordering must be followed when restoring the GIC and the ITS:

a) restore all guest memory and create vcpus
b) restore all redistributors
c) provide the ITS base address
(KVM_DEV_ARM_VGIC_GRP_ADDR)
d) restore the ITS in the following order:
- 1. Restore GITS_CBASER
- 2. Restore all other GITS_ registers, except GITS_CTLR!
