These are relative values on a given CPU. If a b.L SoC has 2 LITTLE CPUs
and 2 big CPUs. The LITTLE CPU capacity is relative to big CPU capacity
i.e 1024. Thats the reason for SM8250 having capacity-dmips-mhz as 448
for LITTLE CPUs (0-3) and 1024 as Big CPUs.

Since SDx75 has all similar capacity CPUs, setting 1024 or for that
matter any value is good enough.
