This layer provides Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) patcheseel_5.1.0eel_5.0.3eel_5.0.2eel/5.1.0eel/5.0.3eel/5.0.25.1.05.0.35.0.2eel

For the moment only for Renesas R-Car Gen3 SoC's.
Can be expanded for other SoC's by setting the machine
feature biglittle and provide the relevant EAS patches.

+Subject: [PATCH 35/92] arm: Make cpufreq policy notifier usable for
+ frequency-invariant load-tracking support
+
+The maximum supported frequency of a cpu (policy->cpuinfo.max_freq) has
+to be retrieved for frequency-invariant load-tracking.
+
+This can be achieved by coding this functionality into the existing
+cpufreq policy notifier (init_cpu_capacity_notifier) which is currently
+only used for setting up dt-based cpu capacities (cpu node property
+capacity-dmips-mhz).
+
+But frequency-invariant load-tracking has to work whether cpu capacity
+dt-parsing succeeded or not.
+
+Change init_cpu_capacity_notifier in such a way that even if the parsing
+of the cpu capacity information failed the notifier is called for each
+cpufreq policy to be able to set the maximum supported frequency.
+
+The continue statement in init_cpu_capacity_callback() makes sure that we
+don't go on calculating cap_scale in case the capacity parsing failed. The
+whole implementation makes only sense as soon the code to set the per-cpu
+variable max_freq is introduced by the following patch ("arm:
+Frequency-invariant load-tracking support").
