Hey I had a tri-core CPU back in the day.. :) Really, I can only assume 
you are oding some tricks with masks which maybe only work with power of 
2 num cpus? Hard to say.. please explain in a comment.

I don't even understand what the context will be for yet and why it 
needs a separate context id.

What is cur? In which patch it gets used? (Can't see it.)
