Secondary cores should enter a low-power idle state when waiting to be started. The "wfe" instruction causes a core to wait until an event or interrupt arrives before continuing to the next instruction, and the "sev" instruction sends a wakeup event to the other cores. Add an "sev" (and a memory barrier) to bcm2836_boot_secondary, the function that wakes the waiting cores during booting. This is required if the secondary cores are sitting in "wfe", and harmless if not.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
