sched/deadline: Fix dl_server runtime calculation formula

In our testing with 6.12 based kernel on a big.LITTLE system, we were
seeing instances of RT tasks being blocked from running on the LITTLE
cpus for multiple seconds of time, apparently by the dl_server. This
far exceeds the default configured 50ms per second runtime.

This is due to the fair dl_server runtime calculation being scaled
for frequency & capacity of the cpu.

Consider the following case under a Big.LITTLE architecture:
Assume the runtime is: 50,000,000 ns, and Frequency/capacity
scale-invariance defined as below:
Frequency scale-invariance: 100
Capacity scale-invariance: 50
First by Frequency scale-invariance,
the runtime is scaled to 50,000,000 * 100 >> 10 = 4,882,812
Then by capacity scale-invariance,
it is further scaled to 4,882,812 * 50 >> 10 = 238,418.
So it will scaled to 238,418 ns.

This smaller "accounted runtime" value is what ends up being
subtracted against the fair-server's runtime for the current period.
Thus after 50ms of real time, we've only accounted ~238us against the
fair servers runtime. This 209:1 ratio in this example means that on
the smaller cpu the fair server is allowed to continue running,
blocking RT tasks, for over 10 seconds before it exhausts its supposed
50ms of runtime.  And on other hardware configurations it can be even
worse.

For the fair deadline_server, to prevent realtime tasks from being
unexpectedly delayed, we really do want to use fixed time, and not
scaled time for smaller capacity/frequency cpus. So remove the scaling
from the fair server's accounting to fix this.
