[PATCH v1 1/2] dt-bindings: arm: move cpu-capacity to a shared loation

From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley at microchip.com>

RISC-V uses the same generic topology code as arm64 & while there
currently exists no binding for cpu-capacity on RISC-V, the code paths
can be hit if the property is present.

Move the documentation of cpu-capacity to a shared location, ahead of
defining a binding for capacity-dmips-mhz on RISC-V. Update some
references to this document in the process.

I wasn't sure what to do with reference [1], but since the property will
be the same on RISC-V, I left it as is.

 to be made available to the kernel for it to be aware of such differences and
 take decisions accordingly.
