It's not missing, it's just brief. :-)

I suppose you could add "The hardcoded behavior prevents SMP support.
QEMU shall specify the vcpu's PIR as the vcpu id".

>From sregs?  Is that worth the compatibility breakage?  We could define
a new bit for ARCH206 without PIR, but older QEMU would then not see the
other ARCH206 stuff.
