Hi,
apologies for the delay in replying, but I'm attending Linux Plumbers
this week.

I should have addressed your comments with the updated version below. If
it looks good to you I'll superseed the old version with this new one.

Subject: [PATCH v7.1 8/9] arm: add sysfs cpu_capacity attribute
Add a sysfs cpu_capacity attribute with which it is possible to read and
write (thus over-writing default values) CPUs capacity. This might be
useful in situations where values needs changing after boot.
The new attribute shows up as:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpu_capacity

Changes from v5:
- add mutex to protect cpu_scale (as pointed out by Morten off-line)
Changes from v7:
- include files moved at top of file
- show_cpu_capacity simplified to less lines of code
- unnecessary cast removed in store_cpu_capacity
- use DEVICE_ATTR_RW() instead of DEVICE_ATTR()
- use subsys_initcall instead of late_initcall
