When system registers are not enabled, all the access to them will trap
in EL2. In Xen, system registers will be enabled by gicv3_cpu_init only
on success. As the rest of the code (e.g gicv3_hyp_init) relies on
system register, it is better to bail out directly.

This will save time on debugging early boot issue on GICv3 platform.

This makes easier to debug early boot issue on GICv3 platform. It would
be worth considering to backport it.

This is good:

Do we also want to print a warning or an error message?

AFAICT, all the path that return an error in gicv3_cpu_init (and the 
callers) have already a warning/error message. So no need to add an 
extra one here.
