The cpu-num suboption to the generic loader has two effects when it is used with -device loader,file=<file>: * it specifies which CPU to load the data through * it specifies which CPU gets its PC set to the file's entry point Our documentation is not very clear about what happens if you don't pass this suboption. The default is that we pick the first CPU to load the data, but we don't set the PC for any CPU, so the "If not specified, the default is CPU 0" is confusing: it applies for loading but not for the PC setting. Clarify the text to make it clearer that the option has two effects and the default behaviour is different for the two effects.
