The Intel SIPI (start-up inter-processor interrupt) vector is the entry
point for each secondary CPU (also called an AP - applications processor).
The assembler and C code are linked, so add comments to indicate this.

In sipi_vector.S, cpu_index (passed as %eax) is wrongly overwritten
by the ap_init() function address. Correct it.

Most modern x86 CPUs include more than one CPU core. The OS normally requires
that these 'Application Processors' (APs) be brought up by the boot loader.
Add the required support to U-Boot to init additional APs.
