Hi!
I've been chipping away at a cpuid_t in a local branch for a while and
I think I have the very basics working well enough.
However, the most annoying thing that's crept up is the most bikeshed
topic of them all - where should it live.
I'd like to avoid having to include sys/pcpu.h or sys/_cpuset.h just
for the id type - it seems a bit overkill.
So - suggestions? Otherwise I'm going to leave it in sys/pcpu.h and
just polluate appropriately.
I'd like to try and get cpuid_t and a handful of KBI-changing things
into -HEAD before 11 is branched so we at least have a hope of trying
to support > 128 CPUs out of the box in the immediate future and > 253
CPUs in the later future.
