I applyed and tested this patch, and it make hackbench slower.
According to my previous test results. The good result is 82.1(s).
But the result of this patch is 108.725(s).

why not is `scale_load_down(NICE_0_LOAD) / MIN_SHARES` here ?

This divergence might be larger, it cause `sleep_time` maybe negative.
