sched: make the multiplication table more accurate
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
do small deltas in the weight and multiplication constant table so
that the worst-case numeric error is better than 1:100000000. (8 digits)

the current error table is:

     nice       mult *   inv_mult   error
