  here.
 

 So what happens if the GPIO controller is mapped above 4 GB in physical 
 memory?


 OK. I'll use 64-bit register base at here. But the original PL061 driver
 is also using 32-bit register base. We could get the definition from
 PL061Gpio.h
 #define PL061_GPIO_DATA_REG ((UINT32)PcdGet32
 (PcdPL061GpioBase) + 0x000)


OK. We should also fix that at some point, but for new code, please
don't make any 32-bit assumptions

You need to use the file GUID of PL061 DXE here. Perhaps you should
add it as a new GUID definition in the HiSiPkg .dec, with the value

 Likewise, this breaks existing users

 Withouth this dependency, LocateProtocol() will be invoked before
 InstallMultipleProtocols(). So I have to add the dependency at here.


Where is the InstallMultipleProtocols() call? Are you going to post it as well?

 I can't find that any driver is using PL061 in edk2 code repository. So
 I can't update the code to reference PL061 driver.


Well, that is not entirely the point. First of all, it may be used
outside of the edk2 tree. But we should also not complicate the common
case by forcing everyone to use the multiple GPIO protocol and install
it programmatically rather than simply setting a PCD
