Obviously I meant to say v3 here.

Forgot to reply: no special reason, I copied this part of the code from arm64.
This code doesn't need to be called especially early; the only requirement is
that it runs before userspace starts. One advantage of core_initcall() is that
it happens after SMP bringup, so this way will have less impact on boot time.
