Log:
  MFC r313447:
    Ensure the idle thread's loop services interrupts in a timely way when
    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.)
