When a system becomes busy and a process's preferred LLC is saturated with too many threads, tasks within that LLC migrate frequently. These in LLC migrations introduce latency and degrade performance. To avoid this, task aggregation should be suppressed when the preferred LLC is overloaded, which requires a metric to indicate LLC utilization. Record per LLC utilization/cpu capacity during periodic load balancing. These statistics will be used in later patches to decide whether tasks should be aggregated into their preferred LLC.
