Change se->load.weight to se_weight(se) in the calculation for the initial util_avg to avoid unnecessarily inflating the util_avg by 1024 times. The reason is that se->load.weight has the unit/scale as the scaled-up load, while cfs_rg->avg.load_avg has the unit/scale as the true task weight (as mapped directly from the task's nice/priority value). With CONFIG_32BIT, the scaled-up load is equal to the true task weight. With CONFIG_64BIT, the scaled-up load is 1024 times the true task weight. Thus, the current code may inflate the util_avg by 1024 times. The follow-up capping will not allow the util_avg value to go wild. But the calculation should have the correct logic.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
