+/*************************************************************************
+ * Super simple bootloader
+ * Preserve loaded values that we need to pass to the kernel (r0, r1, r2)
+ * Additionally M5 puts the kernel start address in r3
+ *
+ * Upon executing this code:
+ * r0 = 0, r1 = machine number, r2 = atags ptr
+ * r3 = kernel start address
+ *
+ * CPU 0 should branch to the kernel start address and it's done with
+ * the boot loader. Other CPUs need to start in a wfi loop. When CPU0 sends
+ * an IPI the slave CPUs reads a register which CPU0 has programmed with the
+ * boot address for the secondary cpu
