The division is used directly in re-divvying up power, the decimal part will
be discarded, devices will get less than the extra_actor_power - 1.
if using round the division to make the calculation more accurate.

For example:
actor0 received more than it's max_power, it has the extra_power 759
actor1 received less than it's max_power, it require extra_actor_power 395
actor2 received less than it's max_power, it require extra_actor_power 365
actor1 and actor2 require the total capped_extra_power 760

using division in re-divvying up power
actor1 would actually get the extra_actor_power 394
actor2 would actually get the extra_actor_power 364

if using round the division in re-divvying up power
actor1 would actually get the extra_actor_power 394
actor2 would actually get the extra_actor_power 365
