With the introduction of cpu capacity bindings, CPU capacities can now be
extracted from DT. Add parsing of such information at boot time. We keep
code that can produce same information, based on different DT properties
and hard-coded values, as fall-back for backward compatibility.
This patch-set should define _one_ way to be able to specify
heterogeneous cpu capacity values for all arm and arm64 systems. So I
would really like that we can agree on this solution ('capacity'
property) and delete the old (cortex-a[15,7] only) solution based on
struct cpu_efficiency table_efficiency[] and 'clock-frequency' property
in arch/arm/kernel/topology.c. The appropriate code in
arch/arm[,64]/kernel/topology.c should be the same. Everything else is
highly confusing.
Yeah, I tend to agree on this. I'd say that we could first agree on the
way we specify capacities and then we see what cleanups are required to
make things nicer.

Thanks,

- Juri
