Unrelated, but you seem to be running with ICC_CTLR_EL3.PMHE set,
which makes the overhead of pseudo-NMIs much higher than it should be
(you take a DSB SY on each interrupt unmasking).

If you are not using 1:N distribution of SPIs on the secure side,
consider turning that off in your firmware. This should make NMIs
slightly more pleasant to use.
