The scheduler tries to compute how many tasks a group of CPUs can handle by
assuming that a task's load is SCHED_LOAD_SCALE and a CPU capacity is
SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE.
We can now have a better idea of the capacity of a group of CPUs and of the
utilization of this group thanks to the rework of group_capacity_orig and the
group_utilization. We can now deduct how many capacity is still available.
