linuxbios_apc.rom is the code for ap. The code is in it's own cache. So BSP is executing the code in ROM and RAM, and at the same time the APs executing code in cache.
The AP uncompress the linuxbios_apc.rom from rom to it's cache before jump it. At that time the RAM on BSP is ready already.
Sorry, can you please explain what AP, APC and BSP are?
