 *
 * This function does a heapsort on the given array. You may provide a
 * swap function optimized to your element type.
 *
 * Sorting time is O(n log n) both on average and worst-case. While
 * qsort is about 20% faster on average, it suffers from exploitable
 * O(n*n) worst-case behavior and extra memory requirements that make
 * it less suitable for kernel use.
