Subject: [PATCH v7.1 9/9] arm64: add sysfs cpu_capacity attribute

Add a sysfs cpu_capacity attribute with which it is possible to read and
write (thus over-writing default values) CPUs capacity. This might be
useful in situations where values needs changing after boot.

The new attribute shows up as:

 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpu_capacity

Changes from v5:
  - add mutex to protect cpu_scale (as pointed out by Morten off-line)

Changes from v7:
  - include files moved at top of file
  - show_cpu_capacity simplified to less lines of code
  - unnecessary cast removed in store_cpu_capacity
  - use DEVICE_ATTR_RW() instead of DEVICE_ATTR()
  - use subsys_initcall instead of late_initcall
