Log:
   Don't spin in pause() during early boot for kthreads other than thread0.
pause() uses a spin loop to simulate a sleep during early boot. However,
   we only need this for thread0 to get far enough in the boot process to
   enable timers (at which point pause() can sleep).  For other kthreads,
   sleeping in pause() is ok as the callout will be scheduled and will
   eventually fire once thread0 initializes timers.

maybe we just need to depend on a variable "have_timers"
that is independent of the cold/hot/whatever  settings.
first code to enable a timer sets it.
