WA_IDLE is my 'old' patch and what you all tested, WA_WEIGHT is the
addition -- based on the old scheme -- that I've tried in order to lift
the overloaded case (including hackbench).

Its not an unconditional win, but I'm tempted to default enable
WA_WEIGHT too (I've not done NO_WA_IDLE && WA_WEIGHT runs).

But let me first write a Changelog for the below and queue that. Then we
ran maybe run more things..



On my IVB-EP (2 nodes, 10 cores/node, 2 threads/core):
