using the ACPI C1/mwait sleep method.
Previously, the mwait instruction would return when an interrupt was
pending; however, the idle loop did not actually enable interrupts when
this occurred. This led to a situation where the idle loop could quickly
spin through the C1/mwait sleep method a number of times when an interrupt
was pending. (Eventually, the situation corrected itself when something
other than an interrupt triggered the idle loop to either enable interrupts
or schedule another thread.)
