I found it during code review, not from a production failure.
I reproduced it with a KUnit test that advances PELT by exactly 2^32 periods.
Before the fix, util_avg remained 43 instead of 1024; after the fix, the test
passed. A standalone harness confirmed the same result.
Thanks for the review.
Thanks,
Hui
