s390/vtime: fix average steal time calculation

[ Upstream commit 367c50f78451d3bd7ad70bc5c89f9ba6dec46ca9 ]

Current average steal timer calculation produces volatile and inflated
values. The only user of this value is KVM so far and it uses that to
decide whether or not to yield the vCPU which is seeing steal time.
KVM compares average steal timer to a threshold and if the threshold
is past then it does not allow CPU polling and yields it to host, else
it keeps the CPU by polling.
Since KVM's steal time threshold is very low by default (%10) it most
likely is not effected much by the bloated average steal timer values
because the operating region is pretty small. However there might be
new users in the future who might rely on this number. Fix average
steal timer calculation by changing the formula from:

avg_steal_timer = avg_steal_timer / 2 + steal_timer;

to the following:

avg_steal_timer = (avg_steal_timer + steal_timer) / 2;

This ensures that avg_steal_timer is actually a naive average of steal
timer values. It now closely follows steal timer values but of course
in a smoother manner.

Merge tag 'sched-core-2023-02-20' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:

- Improve the scalability of the CFS bandwidth unthrottling logic with
large number of CPUs.

- Fix & rework various cpuidle routines, simplify interaction with the
generic scheduler code. Add __cpuidle methods as noinstr to objtool's
noinstr detection and fix boatloads of cpuidle bugs & quirks.

- Add new ABI: introduce MEMBARRIER_CMD_GET_REGISTRATIONS, to query
previously issued registrations.

- Limit scheduler slice duration to the sysctl_sched_latency period, to
improve scheduling granularity with a large number of SCHED_IDLE
tasks.

- Debuggability enhancement on sys_exit(): warn about disabled IRQs,
but also enable them to prevent a cascade of followup problems and
repeat warnings.

- Fix the rescheduling logic in prio_changed_dl().

- Micro-optimize cpufreq and sched-util methods.

- Micro-optimize ttwu_runnable()

- Micro-optimize the idle-scanning in update_numa_stats(),
select_idle_capacity() and steal_cookie_task().

- Update the RSEQ code & self-tests

- Constify various scheduler methods

- Remove unused methods

- Refine __init tags

- Documentation updates

- Misc other cleanups, fixes

The archs that use cputime_to_nsecs() internally provide their own
definition and don't need the fallback. cputime_to_usecs() unused except
in this fallback, and is not defined anywhere.

This removes the final remnant of the cputime_t code from the kernel.
