100% CPU usage while waiting for LUKS password

While waiting for the user to type a LUKS password, grub 2.0.2 causes
100% CPU usage.

This is perhaps most problematic within a virtual machine, taking up
an entire virtual core on the host.  Especially bad for VM providers
who don't have control over this.

This is certainly a lesser problem on bare metal, although it's never
a great idea to put undue stress on hardware.
