Hi Magnus,
I applied these patches on top of renesas-devel-v3.14-20140408,
compiled using the shmobile_defconfig, and booted a Lager board.
I was expecting to see 8 cores in /proc/cpuinfo but I only see 4.
Are my expectations wrong or am I missing something?

The maximum number of CPUs in the kernel config may be limited to 4 by default?
Also, to use CA7 with upstream you need to disable the arch timer and
rely on CMT.
To clarify, I don't expect these to be merged upstream. Also, I don't
believe the standard kernel config needs to work out of the box.
Cheers,

The shmobile_defconfig yeilds CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8, which seems fine.

Thanks I have disabled CONFIG_HAVE_ARM_ARCH_TIMER.

That is fine. But even with the above tweak I still don't see 8 CPUs
so I do wonder what the trick to seeing them is.

Thanks for providing more information. I wonder, perhaps I forgot to
tell you to also pass "apmu=multicluster" on the kernel command line
to enable all cpus?
The unlocking of multiplatform support is implemented in:
[PATCH 01/02] ARM: shmobile: Multicluster APMU prototype support
