From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

In order be able to compute the sizes of tasks consistently across all
CPUs in a hybrid system, it is necessary to provide CPU capacity scaling
information to the scheduler via arch_scale_cpu_capacity().  Moreover,
the value returned by arch_scale_freq_capacity() for the given CPU must
correspond to the arch_scale_cpu_capacity() return value for it, or
utilization computations will be inaccurate.

Add support for it through per-CPU variables holding the capacity and
maximum-to-base frequency ratio (times SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE) that will
be returned by arch_scale_cpu_capacity() and used by scale_freq_tick()
to compute arch_freq_scale for the current CPU, respectively.

In order to avoid adding measurable overhead for non-hybrid x86 systems,
which are the vast majority in the field, whether or not the new hybrid
CPU capacity scaling will be in effect is controlled by a static key.
This static key is set by calling arch_enable_hybrid_capacity_scale()
which also allocates memory for the per-CPU data and initializes it.
Next, arch_set_cpu_capacity() is used to set the per-CPU variables
mentioned above for each CPU and arch_rebuild_sched_domains() needs
to be called for the scheduler to realize that capacity-aware
scheduling can be used going forward.

v2 -> v3:
   * Rebase after dropping patch [1/3].
   * Rename arch_set_cpu_capacity() arguments.
   * Add empty line to arch_enable_hybrid_capacity_scale().
   * Declare local variables in scale_freq_tick() on one line.

v1 -> v2:
   * Replaces WARN_ON_ONCE() with WARN_ONCE() (2 places)
   * Fix arch_enable_hybrid_capacity_scale() return value when hybrid
     capacity scaling is already enabled.
   * Allow arch_enable_hybrid_capacity_scale() to succeed when
     frequency-invariance is not enabled.
   * Fix arch_set_cpu_capacity() kerneldoc comment
   * Do not disable capacity scaling in disable_freq_invariance_workfn().
   * Relocate arch_hybrid_cap_scale_key definition.

Looks about right; would be good to hear from the AMD folks if they can
use it as is, but if not, it should be simple enough to fix up later.

Well, there are quite a few function kerneldoc comments without the
parens at the end of the name, but sure.
