Thanks for your patch!

411 for the A53 cores sounds a bit low to me, though.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/cpu-capacity.txt uses 578.

Perhaps you already took into account the maximum clock frequencies?
According to the binding document, you should not do that (cfr.
"final capacities are 1024 for cluster0 and 446 for cluster1" in the
bindings doc).

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
