As an operating-system developer, I want vemu to finish its PSCI secondary-core boot (CPU_ON) model, so that I can depend on SMP Linux for production firmware, not just the common path.

Why it matters

SMP Linux

Summary

Bring up secondary cores

Scope of work

Currently a register-only stub. Replace it with a working model of PSCI secondary-core boot (CPU_ON) that actually exhibits the hardware behavior. What it is: Bring up secondary cores. Why it matters: SMP Linux.

Current state

Status: Stub only (registers, no behavior). Notes / evidence: Always returns ALREADY_ON; boots nothing.
