[PATCH v2] sched/cache: Don't use fits_capacity() to compare thread and CPU counts

[Zhan Xusheng <zhanxusheng1024@gmail.com>]

From: Zhan Xusheng <zhanxusheng@xiaomi.com>

invalid_llc_nr() checks that a process's running threads stay below 80%
of the LLC's cores, scaled by llc_aggr_tolerance, with fits_capacity().
fits_capacity() is meant for capacity values; here it only supplies the
20% margin.

Give the check its own helper. x * 5 < y * 4 is the same comparison as
x * 1280 < y * 1024, so there is no functional change.

Qais's series changes fits_capacity() to take a CPU number as its
second argument [1]; this call would then pass the CPU count as a CPU
number without a warning.

v2: reword the comment (Tim); move the reason above out of the
    changelog; add the Reviewed-by tags.
