sched: fix weight calculations

The conversion between virtual and real time is as follows:

  dvt = rw/w * dt <=> dt = w/rw * dvt

Since we want the fair sleeper granularity to be in real time, we actually
need to do:

  dvt = - rw/w * l

This bug could be related to the regression reported by Yanmin Zhang:

| Comparing with kernel 2.6.25, sysbench+mysql(oltp, readonly) has lots
| of regressions with 2.6.26-rc1:
|
| 1) 8-core stoakley: 28%;
| 2) 16-core tigerton: 20%;
| 3) Itanium Montvale: 50%.
