You should take band unfolding into consideration. For example, for a unit
cell if we have
Kpoints
x      y      z      n
...

for a 2×2 super cell we should write
Kpoints
2x     2y      2z      n

2×2 Super cell ----> bz is multiplied by 1/2 ----> kpoints must be
multiplied by 2 to neutralize such a change.
