Subject: [PATCH] HID: wiimote: Fix wiimote mp scale linearization

The wiimote motion plus gyros use two scales to report fast and slow
rotation - below 440 deg/s uses 8192/440 units / deg/s, and above uses
8192/2000 units / deg/s.

Previously this driver attempted to linearize the two by scaling the fast
rate by 18 and the slow by 9, but this results in a scale of
8192*9/440 = ~167.564 for slow and 8192*18/2000 = 73.728 for fast.

Correct the fast motion scale factor so that both report ~167.564
units / deg/s
