As I merged the older one already to 'next', I'll queue 1/2 of v2 on
top of them and then the following (which is incremental between v1
and this v2 2/2) on top.

Subject: [PATCH] t3008: skip lazy-init test on a single-core box

The lazy-init codepath will not be exercised uniless threaded.  Skip
the entire test on a single-core box.  Also replace a hard-coded
constant of 2000 (number of cache entries to manifacture for tests)
with a variable with a human readable name.
