This is something we kind-of already handle in a different way - see
the individual processor idle function in arch/arm/mm/proc*.S.

There's various errata work-arounds older CPUs need for wfi (or rather
its mcr equivalent) so maybe wfi() should just be an alias for a call
to that function.  Or maybe we shouldn't have a wfi() macro at all.
