One way to solve this is to always take runqueues in cpu id order. To do

Thoughts?
You're right. I can't think of a better fix, although we've been trying
to avoid adding cpu to the runqueue structure.
I was going to suggest moving more work into wake_sleeping_dependent
instead, but cores with 4 and more threads now make that less desirable
I suppose.
