From: Morten Rasmussen Morten.Rasmussen@arm.com
Implements arch-specific function to provide the scheduler with a frequency scaling correction factor for more accurate load-tracking. The factor is:
current_freq(cpu) << SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT / max_freq(cpu)
This implementation only provides frequency invariance. No micro-architecture invariance yet.

Signed-off-by: Morten Rasmussen morten.rasmussen@arm.com --- Morten supplied this patch to me in "preview" form. He hasn't posted it yet that I am aware of and I expect it to show up in his EAS v4 patch series. The patch may look different at that point. It replaces the following two patches from his EAS v3 series:
"cpufreq: Architecture specific callback for frequency changes" "arm: Frequency invariant scheduler load-tracking support"
