    x86: Use `3/4*sizeof(per-thread-L3)` as low bound for NT threshold.
    
    On some machines we end up with incomplete cache information. This can
    make the new calculation of `sizeof(total-L3)/custom-divisor` end up
    lower than intended (and lower than the prior value). So reintroduce
    the old bound as a lower bound to avoid potentially regressing code
    where we don't have complete information to make the decision.
