What if the task gets migrated to a different node? Unless the task
is pinned to a node/cpumask that is local to that node, it will move
around freely.
I'm not a huge fan of the per-node setup, but I think the reasonings
given in this patch are a bit too vague and we need to go a bit
deeper on what a better setup would look like.
