    kernel - Refactor cpu localization for VM page allocations
    
    * Change how cpu localization works.  The old scheme was extremely unbalanced
      in terms of vm_page_queue[] load.
    
      The new scheme uses cpu topology information to break the vm_page_queue[]
      down into major blocks based on the physical package id, minor blocks
      based on the core id in each physical package, and then by 1's based on
      (pindex + object->pg_color).
    
      If PQ_L2_SIZE is not big enough such that 16-way operation is attainable
      by physical and core id, we break the queue down only by physical id.
    
      Note that the core id is a real core count, not a cpu thread count, so
      an 8-core/16-thread x 2 socket xeon system will just fit in the 16-way
      requirement (there are 256 PQ_FREE queues).
    
    * When a particular queue does not have a free page, iterate nearby queues
      start at +/- 1 (before we started at +/- PQ_L2_SIZE/2), in an attempt to
      retain as much locality as possible.  This won't be perfect but it should
      be good enough.
    
    * Also fix an issue with the idlezero counters.
