Implement WFE to yield our timeslice to the next CPU.
This avoids slowdowns in multicore configurations caused
by one core busy-waiting on a spinlock which can't possibly
be unlocked until the other core has an opportunity to run.
This speeds up my test case A15 dual-core boot by a factor
of three (though it is still four or five times slower than
a single-core boot).
