Hi all,
These are a few trivial patches to populate cpu capacity information
using performance information from ACPI's CPPC.
I've tied this functionality to the existing function
init_freq_invariance_cppc() called in acpi_cppc_processor_probe().
This function is renamed to a more generic arch_init_invariance_cppc().
The patches have been build tested on x86 and more thoroughly tested on
Juno R2 (arm64), which uses the new functionality, with the following
results:
root at ubuntu:~# dmesg | grep cpu_capacity

All works as expected even if ACPI processor support is built as a
module.
Patches are based on v5.13-rc1.
Let me know what you think!
Thanks,
Ionela.
