Firmware after May 8, 2017 places APs in WFE state at boot. Add a "sev"
after writing the start vector, otherwise secondary CPUs will not boot.

pulled into netbsd-8 it boots with the new firmware, no assertion is
triggered anymore.

For some reason the framebuffer is coherent again when booting the
patched netbsd-8 kernel.

On the other hand, booting -current works fine, but the framebuffer
is incoherent.
