Just NOP the WFI instruction if we have work to do.
This doesn't make much difference currently (though it does avoid
jumping out to the top level loop and immediately restarting),
but the distinction between "halt" and "don't halt" will become
more important when the decision to halt requires us to trap
to a higher exception level instead.
