I don't like the for loop on the cores. In the future, it's possible
that Xen decides to only use 2 cores, so you will power unused core.
What about enabling power in brcm_cpu_up, if it's not too late?

Not only in the future, we have command line options for these sorts of
things already, which I think the ARM port obeys.

Are you talking about "max_cpus" parameter? If so, it's not yet implemented on ARM. We rely on the number of cpus node in the device tree.
