/**
 * Implementation of tree-based pseudo-LRU replacement
 *
 * Works for any associativity between 1 and 128.
 *
 * Also implements associativities that are not a power of 2 by
 * ignoring paths that lead to a larger index (i.e. truncating the
 * tree).  Note that when this occurs, the algorithm becomes less
 * fair, as it will favor indicies in the larger (by index) half of
 * the associative set. This is most unfair when the nearest power of
 * 2 is one below the associativy, and most fair when it is one above.
