Before the yellow color policy was supported, the only supported
profile of metering is RFC2697 and EIR is not part of the profile.
When creating a meter with this profile, the EIR part was always
zero.
After the yellow color policy supported and RFC2698 & 4115 support
was introduced, EIR is relevant and should be calculated. Usually
the EIR could not be zero and the formula for calculating CIR
mantissa & exponent could be reused.
The EIR could be 0 and then only green and red colors will be
supported from the specification. Both the mantissa and exponent
parts should be set to 0. Currently, the formula wrongly sets
non-zero values for the EIR=0 case.
Setting the mantissa and the exponent parts to zeros when EIR is 0
will solve the issue.
