This can race against the vcpu executing hlt if the compiler reorders
the tests (and maybe against waking up from hlt if it does not). It's
best to be conservative like the original code and not optimize away
kicks, unless many of them are unnecessary.

Why create a new function instead of modifying the original?

Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to
