sched/eevdf: Fix avg_vruntime()

The expectation is that placing a task at avg_vruntime() makes it
eligible. Turns out there is a corner case where this is not the case.

Specifically, avg_vruntime() relies on the fact that integer division
is a flooring function (eg. it discards the remainder). By this
property the value returned is slightly left of the true average.

However! when the average is a negative (relative to min_vruntime) the
effect is flipped and it becomes a ceil, with the result that the
returned value is just right of the average and thus not eligible.
