 *
 *  This code tracks the priority of each CPU so that global migration
 *  decisions are easy to calculate.  Each CPU can be in a state as follows:
 *
 *                 (INVALID), IDLE, NORMAL, RT1, ... RT99
 *
 *  going from the lowest priority to the highest.  CPUs in the INVALID state
 *  are not eligible for routing.  The system maintains this state with
 *  a 2 dimensional bitmap (the first for priority class, the second for cpus
 *  in that class).  Therefore a typical application without affinity
 *  restrictions can find a suitable CPU with O(1) complexity (e.g. two bit
 *  searches).  For tasks with affinity restrictions, the algorithm has a
 *  worst case complexity of O(min(102, nr_domcpus)), though the scenario that
 *  yields the worst case search is fairly contrived.
