If there is no exception to process we won't exit the main loop which we
need to do if we want to wait until there is data to read.

Arguably we could come up with a better API to cpu.c but this allows us
to use cpu_resume(c->sleeping_cpu) when waking up rather than hand
rolling our own wake-up mechanism.
