This provides a way to defer processing of an interrupt that wakes the processor out of sleep mode. On 32-bit platforms that use an interrupt to wake the processor, we have to have interrupts enabled in hardware at the point where we go to sleep, otherwise the processor will never wake up. However, because interrupts are logically disabled at this point, we don't want to process the interrupt straight away.
This is handled by setting the _TLF_SLEEPING flag. When we get an interrupt and _TLF_SLEEPING is set, we firstly clear the MSR_EE (external interrupt enable) bit in the saved MSR value, and secondly we then return to the address in the link register, like we do for _TLF_NAPPING, but without actually handling the interrupt. Note that this is handled somewhat differently on powerbooks, so this new code will only be used on non-Apple machines.
