sched: Disable (revert) SCHED_LOAD_SCALE increase
Alex reported that commit c8b2811 ("sched: Increase SCHED_LOAD_SCALE resolution") caused a power usage regression under light load as it increases the number of load-balance operations and keeps idle cpus from staying idle. Time has run out to find the root cause for this release so disable the feature for v3.0 until we can figure out what causes the problem.
