    xen/arm: vgic: Correctly emulate write when byte is used
    
    When a guest is writing a byte, the value will be located in bits[7:0]
    of the register.
    
    Although the current implementation is expecting the byte at the Nth
    byte of the register where N = address & 4;
    
    When the address is not 4-byte aligned, the corresponding byte in the
    internal state will always be set to zero rather.
    
    Note that byte access are only used for GICD_IPRIORITYR and
    GICD_ITARGETSR. So the worst things that could happen is not setting the
    priority correctly and ignore the target vCPU written.
