Subject: [PATCH 3/3] sched: update normalized values on user updates via proc v2

From: Christian Ehrhardt <ehrhardt@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

*updates in v2*
The normalized values are also recalculated in case the scaling factor changes.

This patch updates the internally used scheduler tuning values that are
normalized to one cpu in case a user sets new values via sysfs.

Together with patch 2 of this series this allows to let user configured
values scale (or not) to cpu add/remove events taking place later.
