[Mini-OS] Fix domain blocking race
A callback which wakes a thread may happen between the moment schedule() gives hand to the idle thread and the latter blocks the domain. Idle hence needs to atomically check that no thread is running and block, else awoken threads may have to wait up to 10 seconds. Signed-off-by: Samuel Thibault <samuel.thibault@citrix.com>
