I did some testing (performance gov, no big.little) with this and for a
single task the load_avg values are much higher now on 64bit because of
the missing scale_load_down on weight.
Are you planning to get rid of scale_load_down() for weight because of
the correctness problems of the signal mentioned by Paul in this thread?

"... c) It doesn't work with scale_load_down and fractional shares below
SCHED_LOAD_SCALE [we multiply in a zero -> zero rq load] ... "

This patch moves freq and cpu from accumulate_sum() to ___update_load_avg()?
