To continue Beata's point, I think there is an issue with the following:
cppc_perf_to_khz() and cppc_khz_to_perf() were previously used with a struct containing
frequencies in KHz, cf. [1].
In the original _CPC object, frequencies are in MHz. It means that the perf_caps struct
here contains frequencies in MHz, and per_cpu(capacity_ref_freq, cpu) is in MHz aswell.
