As scaling now takes place on all kind of cpu add/remove events a user that
configures values via proc should be able to configure if his set values are
still rescaled or kept whatever happens.

As the comments state that log2 was just a second guess that worked the
interface is not just designed for on/off, but to choose a scaling type.
Currently this allows none, log and linear, but more important it allwos us
to keep the interface even if someone has an even better idea how to scale
the values.
