Changes to make secondary CPU start-up work on NetBSD, which depends
on some specific behavior in the architecture specification:

- Change the internal swppal() function to take the new VPTPTR and
   Procedure Value as explicit arguments.  Adapt do_start() to the
   new the new swppal() signature.

- In do_start_wait(), extract the new VPTPTR and PV from the relevant
   HWRPB fields, which will have been initialized by the OS, and pass
   them to swppal().

- In the SWPPAL PAL call, get the value to stuff into PV (r27) from
   a4 (r20), and add a comment describing why this implementation detail
   is allowed by the architecture specification.
