sched: Fix division by zero - really
When re-computing the shares for each task group's cpu
representation we need the ratio of weight on each cpu vs the
total weight of the sched domain.
Since load-balancing is loosely (read not) synchronized, the
weight of individual cpus can change between doing the sum and
calculating the ratio.
The previous patch dealt with only one of the race scenarios,
this patch side steps them all by saving a snapshot of all the
individual cpu weights, thereby always working on a consistent
set.
