[bug #14468] max_hard_upload_rate erratic behavior (load sensitive)

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #14468 (project mldonkey):

I am testing it right now.  Under no load, it is actually worse than
'unpatched' 2.6.4, my average up rate being 25-30k/sec.  Under load, it still
drops to 5-10k/sec.  The main difference I noticed is that if I 'reset'
max_hard_upload_rate (0, then 60), I will no longer get the nice flat 'normal
behavior.  Instead, it climbs up to saturate my link (while at 0) and then
drops back down to about half of the setting (30k/s while set at 60).  I
guess we fixed a bit of the mystery: I don't get a 'normal' state that
mysteriously disappears now, it's 'misbehaving' all the way ;)

I included a screenshot that shows bandwidth useage after startup, then under
load (the pit), when max_hard_upload_rate=0 (the peak), then when it is set
back to 60.
