  //
  // 1. entry64high had no AP branch at all; the check was a comment saying it
  //    had never been written. Every AP fell into the boot processor's path,
  //    took the BSP's stack, and ran kmain() a second time.
  // 2. seginit() called kalloc() for its per-CPU page. kalloc locks, locking
  //    reads `cpu`, and `cpu` is what seginit() was about to set up.
  // 3. kernel_fs_base was one global for all CPUs, and trapasm.S read it on
  //    every entry from user mode, so both CPUs shared one per-CPU block.
  // 4. `cpu` and `proc` were __thread. That means per *thread*, so the compiler
  //    cached the thread pointer across calls -- but %fs here is per *CPU*, and
  //    a kernel thread changes CPU at every sched(). See include/proc.h.
  // 5. The new per-CPU slots collided with syscall_entry's scratch word at
  //    %fs:(8), which is the same memory as %gs:8.
