I'm not entirely clear on what you're referring to here.  Are you
talking about the secondary cpu entry point?  I've fixed up that
comment now as well as a s/__lookup_machine_type/__lookup_processor_type/
typo right before the call to __enable_mmu.

I've also removed the machine type lookup from head-nommu.S and I'll
repost the patch later today.

Thanks for the review,
