Nobody is proposing this. Although I have proposed that if the kernel
knows which CPU can best service a request it might hint as much.
But in general, you're free to decentralize as much as you want. But
this does not mean it should not also be possible to use a number of
threads in the same loop and the same kevent queue. That's the part
which needs designing, the separate queues will always be possible.
