    kernel - Refactor cpu localization for VM page allocations (3)
    
    * Instead of iterating the cpus in the mask starting at cpu #0, iterate
      starting at mycpu to the end, then from 0 to mycpu - 1.
    
      This fixes random masked wakeups from favoring lower-numbered cpus.
    
    * The user process scheduler (usched_dfly) was favoring lower-numbered
      cpus due to a bug in the simple selection algorithm, causing forked
      processes to initially weight improperly.  A high fork or fork/exec
      rate skewed the way the cpus were loaded.
    
      Fix this by correctly scanning cpus from the (scancpu) rover.
    
    * For now, use a random 'previous' affinity for initially scheduling a
      fork.
