From: Bai Yingjie <byj....@gmail.com> CPU like P4080 has 36bit physical address, its DDR physical start address can be configured above 4G by LAW registers.
For such systems in which their physical memory start address was configured higher than 4G, we need also to write addr_h into the spin table of the target secondary CPU, so that addr_h and addr_l together represent a 64bit physical address. Otherwise the secondary core can not get correct entry to start from. This should do no harm for normal case where addr_h is all 0.
