 * Scheduler load calculation algorithm
 *
 * The scheduler load values provide an estimate of the number of runnable 
 * timeshare threads in the system at various priority bands. The load 
 * ultimately affects the priority shifts applied to all threads in a band 
 * causing them to timeshare with other threads in the system. The load is 
 * maintained in buckets, with each bucket corresponding to a priority band.
 *
 * Each runnable thread on the system contributes its load to its priority 
 * band and to the bands above it. The contribution of a thread to the bands 
 * above it is not strictly 1:1 and is weighted based on the priority band 
 * of the thread. The rules of thread load contribution to each of its higher 
 * bands are as follows:
 *
 * - DF threads: Upto (2 * NCPUs) threads
 * - UT threads: Upto NCPUs threads
 * - BG threads: Upto 1 thread
 *
 * To calculate the load values, the various run buckets are sampled (every 
 * sched_load_compute_interval_abs) and the weighted contributions of the the
 * lower bucket threads are added. The resultant value is plugged into an 
 * exponentially weighted moving average formula: 
 *      new-load = alpha * old-load + (1 - alpha) * run-bucket-sample-count
 *      (where, alpha < 1)
 * The calculations for the scheduler load are done using fixpoint math with 
 * a scale factor of 16 to avoid expensive divides and floating point 
 * operations. The final load values are a smooth curve representative of 
 * the actual number of runnable threads in a priority band.

 * enough to changing system load but does not see too many spikes from bursty 
 * activity. The current values ensure that the scheduler would converge 
 * to the latest load in 2-3 sched_load_compute_interval_abs intervals 
 * (which amounts to ~30-45ms with current values).
