if you want to use something before the BSS initialization, then you can
move it to the BSP_START_DATA_SECTION section or explicitly initialize
it, e.g. in your case via rtems_interrupt_lock_initialize().
The rest of the patch series looks good.
The smpfatal08 test is quite a hack since it re-defines some global SMP
support functions locally. In order to support this, the ARM BSPs must
place the _CPU_SMP_Start_processor() function as the only global
function into the bspsmp.c file.
