Is this for an ARMv7 platform? If yes, you could just use the WFI
instruction directly (and it would also work if compiling the kernel
to Thumb-2 mode).

I was trying to make the code as similar to the realview code as I
reasonably could. There are several instances of that, we could fix all
of them in one go.
