[PATCH] (3/3) NUMA rebalancer
Patch from Erich Focht This adds a hook to rebalance globally across nodes every NODE_BALANCE_RATE iterations of the rebalancer. This allows us to easily tune on an architecture specific basis how often we wish to rebalance - machines with higher NUMA ratios (more expensive off-node access) will want to do this less often. It's currently set to 100 for NUMA-Q and 10 for other machines. If the imbalance between nodes is > 125%, we'll rebalance them. The hook for this is added to the NUMA definition of cpus_to_balance, so again, no impact on non-NUMA machines.
