sched/topology: Consolidate and clean up access to a CPU's max compute capacity
Remove the rq::cpu_capacity_orig field and use arch_scale_cpu_capacity()
instead.
The scheduler uses 3 methods to get access to a CPU's max compute capacity:
- arch_scale_cpu_capacity(cpu) which is the default way to get a CPU's capacity.
- cpu_capacity_orig field which is periodically updated with
arch_scale_cpu_capacity().
- capacity_orig_of(cpu) which encapsulates rq->cpu_capacity_orig.
There is no real need to save the value returned by arch_scale_cpu_capacity()
in struct rq. arch_scale_cpu_capacity() returns:
- either a per_cpu variable.
- or a const value for systems which have only one capacity.
Remove rq::cpu_capacity_orig and use arch_scale_cpu_capacity() everywhere.
No functional changes.
Some performance tests on Arm64:
- small SMP device (hikey): no noticeable changes
- HMP device (RB5): hackbench shows minor improvement (1-2%)
- large smp (thx2): hackbench and tbench shows minor improvement (1%)
