Hi all,

v2->v3:
 - v2 can be found at [2]
 - Added sanity checking on perf_caps.highest_perf

v1->v2:
 - v1 can be found at [1]
 - Changed debug prints to the format used on the DT path
 - s/init_cpu_capacity_cppc/topology_init_cpu_capacity_cppc

Patches are based on v5.17-rc6.

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:
