On processors with hyperthreading, when only one thread is offlined the other thread can cause a spurious wakeup on the idled thread. We do not want to re-WBINVD when that happens. Ideally, we should simply skip WBINVD unless we're the last thread on a particular core to shut down, but there might be similar issues elsewhere in the system. Thus, revert to previous behavior of only WBINVD outside the loop. Partly as a result, remove the mb()'s around it: they are not necessary since wbinvd() is a serializing instruction, but they were intended to make sure the compiler didn't do any funny loop optimizations.
