I think I added this modification because I arrived to the conclusion
that schedutils does not perform this rescaling (at least, I think it
did not perform it when I wrote the patch :)


BTW, while re-reading the patch I do not understand why this change was
added in this specific patch... I suspect it should have gone in a
separate patch.
