This is intended to prevent NS code from claiming active interrupts in the Secure priority range, which could block Secure interrupt delivery. However, that check assumes prebits=7 (4 APR registers), where the NS priority range (128..255) maps entirely to AP1R2/AP1R3. Since commit 39f29e599355 ("hw/intc/arm_gicv3: Use correct number of priority bits for the CPU", first in 7.1), all QEMU AArch64 CPUs are initialised with gic_pribits=5 (one APR register), so NS priorities map to AP1R0 bits [16:31]. Blanket WI of the entire AP1R0 register prevents NS code from clearing its own NS active priority bits. Machines using hw_compat_7_0 (e.g. virt-7.0) still force pribits=8 via force-8-bit-prio and are therefore unaffected. A concrete consequence observed in virtualisation scenarios: when a guest VM acknowledges an SPI interrupt but does not perform EOI, is force-killed and restarted, the new guest's attempt to clear the residual active state by writing ICC_AP1R0_EL1=0 is silently ignored. The running priority (RPR) remains stuck at the old interrupt's priority, preventing all equal-or-lower priority interrupts (including timer interrupts) from being delivered, and hanging the guest. Fix this by computing the exact Secure/NS boundary within the APR bank based on prebits. For registers entirely in the Secure range, keep the WI behaviour. For the register that straddles the boundary, preserve only the Secure bits while allowing NS bits to be modified. For registers entirely in the NS range, allow full write access. The new logic produces identical behaviour to the old code when prebits=7, preserving existing behaviour for machines that use force-8-bit-prio.
