This doesn't match what I see here. Just ran some test cases - both
sync, and higher QD. For sync performance, core or thread sibling is the
best choice, other CPUs next. That is pretty logical.

For a more loaded run, thread sibling ends up being a better choice than
core, since core runs out of steam (255K vs 275K here). And thread
sibling is still a marginally better choice than some other core on the
same node.

Which pretty much matches my expectations of what the best mappings
would be.
