Johannes Berg eb1e011a14 average: change to declare precision, not factor
Declaring the factor is counter-intuitive, and people are prone
to using small(-ish) values even when that makes no sense.

Change the DECLARE_EWMA() macro to take the fractional precision,
in bits, rather than a factor, and update all users.

While at it, add some more documentation.

/*
* Exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA)
*
* This implements a fixed-precision EWMA algorithm, with both the
* precision and fall-off coefficient determined at compile-time
* and built into the generated helper funtions.
*
* The first argument to the macro is the name that will be used
* for the struct and helper functions.
*
* The second argument, the precision, expresses how many bits are
* used for the fractional part of the fixed-precision values.
*
* The third argument, the weight reciprocal, determines how the
* new values will be weighed vs. the old state, new values will
* get weight 1/weight_rcp and old values 1-1/weight_rcp. Note
* that this parameter must be a power of two for efficiency.
