If a task wakes up too many other tasks, affine wakeups will get disabled. However, regardless of how many other tasks it wakes up, it gets re-enabled once a second, potentially interfering with NUMA placement of other tasks. By decaying wakee_wakes in half instead of zeroing it, we can avoid that problem for some workloads.
