I think I follow, but doesn't that mean that the current code is broken
too? NICE_0_LOAD changes if you change SCHED_LOAD_RESOLUTION:

#define SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT        (10 + SCHED_LOAD_RESOLUTION)
#define SCHED_LOAD_SCALE        (1L << SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT)

#define NICE_0_LOAD             SCHED_LOAD_SCALE
#define NICE_0_SHIFT            SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT

To me it sounds like we need to define it the other way around:

#define NICE_0_SHIFT            10
#define NICE_0_LOAD             (1L << NICE_0_SHIFT)

and then add any additional resolution bits from there to ensure that
NICE_0_LOAD and the prio_to_weight/wmult tables are unchanged.
