[PATCH v3 0/3] Add support for AArch64 AMUv1-based arch_freq_get_on_cpu

[Beata Michalska]

Introducing arm64 specific version of arch_freq_get_on_cpu, cashing on
existing implementation for FIE and AMUv1 support: the frequency scale
factor, updated on each sched tick, serves as a base for retrieving
the frequency for a given CPU, representing an average frequency
reported between the ticks - thus its accuracy is limited.

The changes have been rather lightly (due to some limitations) tested on
an FVP model.

v3:
- dropping changes to cpufreq_verify_current_freq
- pulling in changes from Ionela initializing capacity_freq_ref to 0
  (thanks for that!)  and applying suggestions made by her during last review:
	- switching to arch_scale_freq_capacity and arch_scale_freq_ref when
	  reversing freq scale factor computation
	- swapping shift with multiplication
- adding time limit for considering last scale update as valid
- updating frequency scale factor upon entering idle

v2:
- Splitting the patches
- Adding comment for full dyntick mode
- Plugging arch_freq_get_on_cpu into cpufreq_verify_current_freq instead
  of in show_cpuinfo_cur_freq to allow the framework to stay more in sync
  with potential freq changes

Beata Michalska (2):
  arm64: Provide an AMU-based version of arch_freq_get_on_cpu
  arm64: Update AMU-based frequency scale factor on entering idle

Ionela Voinescu (1):
  arch_topology: init capacity_freq_ref to 0
