On 1.6GHz Montectio Tiger4, the following performance data is measured with
kernel built with defconfig which has NUMA configured:

Fastest sys_getcpu: 502 itc counts.
Fastest fsys_getcpu: 28 itc counts.

fsys_getcpu performance is largly impacted by whether data (node_to_cpu_map
etc) is in cache. It can take fsys_getcpu up to ~150 itc counts in cold
cache case.
