Add `cpu1`, `cpu2` and `cpu3` nodes to the Corstone1000 device tree to
enable support for secondary CPU cores.

This update facilitates symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) support on
the Corstone1000 Fixed Virtual Platform (FVP), allowing the
secondary cores to be properly initialised and utilised.

Only FVP platform will have SMP support and hence the secondary cpu definitions
are not added to corstone1000.dtsi.

No, nothing improved.

Provide detailed changelog after the ---.

Do not attach (thread) your patchsets to some other threads (unrelated
or older versions). This buries them deep in the mailbox and might
interfere with applying entire sets.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Why? Nothing improved here comparing to v1.

Your comment are still valid and the patch is still not correct.

It was not marked clearly or noted as change. I agree that is confusing.

However the following was added:

"Only FVP platform will have SMP support and hence the secondary cpu
definitions are not added to corstone1000.dtsi"

Hugues pinged me in private to explain why it is done in that way and I
asked him to add the reasoning in the commit message which he did but
failed to capture in the v1->v2 changelog. I mentioned it in private
again as he is new contributor to the kernel, I was less strict on him 😉.
