   function name                scaling

(1) arch_scale_cpu_capacity() -	uarch

(2) get_actual_cpu_capacity() -	hw + cpufreq/thermal of (1)

(3) capacity_of()	      -	rt (rt/dl/irq) of (2) (used by fair)

Although (1) - (3) are very close to each other from the functional
standpoint, their names are not very coherent.

I assume this makes it hard to understand all of this when reading the
code w/o knowing these patches before.

Why is (2) tagged with 'actual'?

This is especially visible in feec() where local variable cpu_cap
relates to (3) whereas cpu_actual_cap related to (2).
