Right now, it just loses affinity.  A more interesting case is a cpu
going offline whlie work items bound to the cpu are still running and
the root problem is that we've never distinguished between affinity
for correctness and optimization and thus can't flush or warn on the
stagglers.  The plan is to ensure that all correctness users specify
the CPU explicitly.  Once we're there, we can warn on illegal usages.

Thanks.
