select_idle_sibling will iterate over all of the CPUs
in an LLC domain if there is no idle cpu in the domain.

I suspect it would not take much extra code to track
down the idlest CPU in the LLC domain, and make sure to
schedule tasks there, in case no completely idle CPU
was found.

Are there any major problems with that thinking?
