[RFCv2 PATCH 15/23] sched, cpufreq: Introduce current cpu compute capacity into scheduler

[Morten Rasmussen]

The scheduler is currently unaware of frequency changes and the current
compute capacity offered by the cpus. This patch is not the solution.
It is a hack to give us something to experiment with for now.

A proper solution could be based on the frequency invariant load
tracking proposed in the past: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/16/289
The best way to get current compute capacity is likely to be
architecture specific. A potential solution is therefore to let the
architecture implement get_curr_capacity() instead.

This patch should _not_ be considered safe.
