Yuyang Du a481db34b9 sched/fair: Optimize ___update_sched_avg()
The main PELT function ___update_load_avg(), which implements the
accumulation and progression of the geometric average series, is
implemented along the following lines for the scenario where the time
delta spans all 3 possible sections (see figure below):

  1. add the remainder of the last incomplete period
  2. decay old sum
  3. accumulate new sum in full periods since last_update_time
  4. accumulate the current incomplete period
  5. update averages

Or:

            d1          d2           d3
            ^           ^            ^
            |           |            |
          |<->|<----------------->|<--->|
  ... |---x---|------| ... |------|-----x (now)

  load_sum' = (load_sum + weight * scale * d1) * y^(p+1) +	(1,2)

                                        p
	      weight * scale * 1024 * \Sum y^n +		(3)
                                       n=1

	      weight * scale * d3 * y^0				(4)

  load_avg' = load_sum' / LOAD_AVG_MAX				(5)

Where:

 d1 - is the delta part completing the remainder of the last
      incomplete period,
 d2 - is the delta part spannind complete periods, and
 d3 - is the delta part starting the current incomplete period.

We can simplify the code in two steps; the first step is to separate
the first term into new and old parts like:

  (load_sum + weight * scale * d1) * y^(p+1) = load_sum * y^(p+1) +
					       weight * scale * d1 * y^(p+1)

Once we've done that, its easy to see that all new terms carry the
common factors:

  weight * scale

If we factor those out, we arrive at the form:

  load_sum' = load_sum * y^(p+1) +

	      weight * scale * (d1 * y^(p+1) +

					 p
			        1024 * \Sum y^n +
					n=1

				d3 * y^0)

Which results in a simpler, smaller and faster implementation.
