FWAIT Wait Exception Flags: None
FWAIT
Logic: 80x86 wait
FWAIT causes the 80x86 microprocessor to wait until the current
80x87 instruction is completed. It is used to synchronize the 80x86
and 80x87.
FWAIT is the same instruction as the 80x86 WAIT instruction.
However, you should use the FWAIT instruction since WAIT may cause
an infinite wait under some circumstances.

Note: Whenever FWAIT is required in a program, assemblers
usually insert one automatically.
