Message-ID<t0mxI-5SC-11@gated-at.bofh.it>
This was really usefull when doing initial bringup and also for
occassional debug of software and hardware bugs. However in the new
smp-boot regime, non masters will "self" halt even for run-on-reset
configs. This will misinteract with the debug feature as in even master
will get halted when the non masters self halt.

I've been doing that for quite some time locally because that used to be a must
for execution of SMP vmlinux in "pseudo"-UP mode, i.e. on SMP hardware but
with only 1 core being used.

I'm really happy to see this commit upstream - will definitely make life a bit simpler.
