[RFCv6 PATCH 01/10] sched: Compute cpu capacity available at current frequency

[Steve Muckle]

From: Morten Rasmussen <morten.rasmussen@xxxxxxx>

capacity_orig_of() returns the max available compute capacity of a cpu.
For scale-invariant utilization tracking and energy-aware scheduling
decisions it is useful to know the compute capacity available at the
current OPP of a cpu.
