sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN) is used a number of places in the tree to get
a core count for parallel algorithms.  The web says that that phrase does
not really return the number of available cores on ARM Linuxish systems in
general, including Android - because the return value does not account for
cores that are sleeping for power saving reasons.  (I've confirmed this
locally on an ARM board.)  So you may get lucky when you ask.  Or not.

sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) works better here.
