mm: use part per 1000000 for bdi ratios
To get finer granularity for ratio calculations use part per million instead of percentiles. This is especially important if we want to automatically convert byte values to ratios. Otherwise the values that are actually used can be quite different. This is also important for machines with more main memory (1% of 256GB is already 2.5GB).
