What is likely to happen if the boot CPU is not CPU #0?  (iirc Voyager does
that?)

Not sure, but I think this replicates the behaviour of the original code(ie, INIT_THREAD_INFO initializes cpu to 0, so smp_processor_id willreturn 0). Hm, Voyager will probably need a little patch to update thethe PDA cpu_number properly in smp_setup_processor_id().
