instruction doesn't work correctly and not to
use it.
+ nohalt [IA-64] Tells the kernel not to use the power saving
+ function PAL_HALT_LIGHT when idle. This increases
+ power-consumption. On the positive side, it reduces
+ interrupt wake-up latency, which may improve performance
+ in certain environments such as networked servers or
+ real-time systems.
