Hmm? The code does:
if (arm_feature(&cpu->env, ARM_FEATURE_V7)) {
fixupcontext[FIXUP_DSB] = DSB_INSN;
} else {
fixupcontext[FIXUP_DSB] = CP15_DSB_INSN;
}
so fixupcontext[FIXUP_DSB] is guaranteed initialized,
as are FIXUP_GIC_CPU_IF and FIXUP_BOOTREG, which are
the only fixups that the smpboot[] code uses.
