[PATCH] cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix rounding of core_pct

[Stratos Karafotis]

Local variable core_pct holds fixed point values.
When we round it we add "1" to core_pct. This has almost
no effect.

So, add int_toftp(1) to core_pct when rounding.

For example, in a given sample point (values taken from
tracepoint) with:
aperf = 5024
mperf = 10619

the core_pct is (before rounding):
core_pct = 12111
fp_toint(core_pct) = 47

After rounding:
core_pct = 12112
fp_toint(core_pct) = 47

After rounding with int_toftp(1):
core_pct = 12367
fp_toint(core_pct) = 48

Hi Rafael,

I'm sorry for submitting again in merge window, but
I thought that maybe we need this fix for 3.16.
