This changes the cpu_idle loop for 44x platforms to utilize the Wait Enable feature of the CPU. This helps virtulization solutions know when the guest Linux kernel is in an idle state. A command line option called "idle" is also added to allow people to change the idle loop back to the original variation. This is done by setting "idle=spin" on the kernel command line.
