Use broadcast SIPI to startup siblings
The current code for initializing AP cpus has several shortcomings: - it assumes APIC IDs are sequential - it uses only the BSP for determining the AP count, which is bad if there's more than one physical CPU, and CPUs are of different type Note that the new code call cpu->ops->init() in parallel, and therefore some CPU code needs to be changed to address that. One example are old Intel HT enabled CPUs which can't do microcode update in parallel.
