Aha!  Now I think you're on to something.  Even after explaining why
interrupts should be disabled for WFI I didn't notice that we don't
disable interrupts before WFI.  (I wonder if this is why I sometimes see
a lost timer interrupt and have to hit a key to un-wedge things.)

Can you try the attached?  The spinlock_enter/exit calls are essentially
a combination of disabling interrupts and doing a critical_enter().
