sched: Fix and optimise calculation of the weight-inverse

If the inverse loadweight should be zero, function "calc_delta_mine"
calculates the inverse of "lw->weight" (in 32bit integer ops).

This calculation is actually a little bit impure (because it is
inverting something around "lw-weight"+1), especially when
"lw->weight" becomes smaller.

The correct inverse would be 1/lw->weight multiplied by
"WMULT_CONST" for fixcomma-scaling it into integers.
(So WMULT_CONST/lw->weight ...)

The old, impure algorithm took two divisions for inverting lw->weight,
the new, more exact one only takes one and an additional unlikely-if.

[ This could explain some aritmetical issues for small shares but nothing
  concrete has been reported yet so we are not confident enough to queue
  this up in sched/urgent and for -stable backport. But if anyone finds
  this commit and sees it to fix some badness then we can certainly
  change our mind! ]
