cpu-o3: Prevent cpu from suspending if it is already draining
Suspending the current thread context while draining due to a quiesce
pseudo instruction (for example a wfi instruction) could deadlock the
cpu and prevent it from successfully draining. This change ensures
that the cpu is not draining before suspending the thread context.
