Well, on the bright side, this is much kinder to light load tbench on
4x10 core (+ht) box than current bounce happy select_idle_sibling(). At
the heavy load end I'm losing heaping truckloads of throughput though,
likely some migration rate limiting would fix that up.
select_idle_sibling() doesn't have much of a pretty face these days, but
its evil hag face shows more prominently than ever, so making it dead is
a great goal ;-)
