Rafael, Thara, please ignore for a while this review.
We are going to do full investigation of this boost frequency,
capacity, schedutil util-to-freq mapping with cpuinfo.max_freq.
The code pointed by Rafael in that sched_util function
already has issue [1]. We have to figure out the consistent
solution for all platforms.

Regards,
Lukasz
