REVISION SUMMARY
  Calling popoldest() on insert with cost auditing enabled introduces
  significant overhead.
  
  The primary reason for this overhead is that popoldest() needs to
  walk the linked list to find the first non-empty node. When we
  call popoldest() within a loop, this can become quadratic. The
  performance impact is more pronounced on caches with large capacities.
  
  This commit effectively inlines the popoldest() call into
  _enforcecostlimit(). By doing so, we only do the backwards walk
  to find the first empty node once. However, we still may still
  perform this work on insert when the cache is near cost capacity.
  So this is only a partial performance win.
