If there is a higher priority task when running ops.tick(), ops.select_cpu(), and ops.enqueue() callbacks, the current running tasks yields its CPU by shrinking time slice to zero and a higher priority task can run on the current CPU.
As low-cost, fine-grained preemption becomes available, default parameters are adjusted as follows:
Lastly, using CAS, we ensure that a remote CPU is preempted by only one CPU. This removes unnecessary remote preemptions (and IPIs).
