Yeah, this bug has been there for pretty much forever it seems. Commit
86e51a2ee471 "ARM: tegra: support for secondary cores on Tegra30" added
tegra30_boot_secondary() (named tegra30_power_up_cpu() back then, which
was renamed to tegra30_boot_secondary() in commit 0d1f79b033bb "ARM:
tegra: refactor tegra{20,30}_boot_secondary". The latter was introduced
in v3.10, so I guess backporting it to stable releases all the way back
to v3.10 would be good.

Backporting to earlier versions (86e51a2ee471 went into v3.4) will be a
lot more difficult since some of the APIs were renamed since then.
