cpu: Prevent suspended TimingSimple CPUs from fetching next instructions

In TimingSimpleCPU model, when a CPU is suspended by a syscall (e.g.,
futex(FUTEX_WAIT)), the CPU waits for another CPU to wake it up
(e.g., FUTEX_WAKE operation). While staying Idle, the suspended CPU
should not try to fetch next instructions after the syscall.

This patch added a status check before a CPU schedule a fetch event
after a fault is handled.
