[PATCH] lib/flex_proportions.c: Use abs() when percpu_counter is negative.
From: Chi Wu
Date: Mon May 17 2021 - 12:42:39 EST
The value of percpu_counter_read() may become negative after
running percpu_counter_sum() in fprop_reflect_period_percpu().
The value of variable 'num' will be zero in fprop_fraction_percpu()
when using percpu_counter_read_positive(), but if using the abs of
percpu_counter_read() will be close to the correct value.
