The abstract TYPE_BCM283X device provides a 'enabled-cpus' property to restrict the number of cores powered on reset. This because on real hardware the GPU is responsible of starting the cores and keep them spinning until the Linux kernel is ready to use them. When using the -kernel paramenter, QEM
