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. Bug-AGL: SPEC-813 Change-Id: I2b5e69c515c33e57be19b30466fe208d7b8ac1a5 Signed-off-by: Frode Isaksen <fisaksen@baylibre.com>

+Subject: [PATCH 67/92] arm: Cpu invariant scheduler load-tracking and capacity
+ support
+
+Provides the scheduler with a cpu scaling correction factor for more
+accurate load-tracking and cpu capacity handling.
+
+The Energy Model (EM) (in fact the capacity value of the last element
+of the capacity states vector of the core (MC) level sched_group_energy
+structure) is used instead of the arm arch specific cpu_efficiency and
+dtb property 'clock-frequency' values as the source for this cpu
+scaling factor.
+
+The cpu capacity value depends on the micro-architecture and the
+maximum frequency of the cpu.
+
+The maximum frequency part should not be confused with the frequency
+invariant scheduler load-tracking support which deals with frequency
+related scaling due to DFVS functionality.
