The AP enters HALT state with IF=0. What can make it resume at the

Yes, but also INIT.
Are you sure the AP will continue after the hlt instruction on INIT?
I think it will start to execute code from the reset vector (0xfffffff0).
We might ignore IF=0 for hlt (which would be a bug).
I think i read something about a need for 4kb alignment for the
startup vector in the mp specs. AP_BOOT_ADDR is currently
at 0x10000 (16 x 4kb).
Yes, the SIPI address is 4K x sipi vector.
