net_sched: gen_estimator: fix scaling error in bytes/packets samples



Denys reported wrong rate estimations with HTB classes.

It appears the bug was added in linux-4.10, since my tests
where using intervals of one second only.

HTB using 4 sec default rate estimators, reported rates
were 4x higher.

We need to properly scale the bytes/packets samples before
integrating them in EWMA.

Tested:
 echo 1 >/sys/module/sch_htb/parameters/htb_rate_est

 Setup HTB with one class with a rate/cail of 5Gbit

 Generate traffic on this class

 tc -s -d cl sh dev eth0 classid 7002:11
