If I understand this correctly, it's specifically doing a halt with 
interrupts disabled.  In theory that should just halt the processor 
indefinitely, since interrupts cannot be received.  I can't imagine this 
being a common scenario for any software other than when it is 
completely shut down, unless of course you are explicitly expecting a 
non-maskable interrupt, which cannot be disabled, during a halt 
instruction.  Again, I don't think it's all that common.
