Both clamps are initialized with 1023 because children can go lower
but can't go higher? Comment might be helpful.
I saw this pattern of using uclamp_none(UCLAMP_MAX) for both clamps in
couple places. Maybe would be better to have smth like:

static inline int tg_uclamp_none(int clamp_id) {
/* TG's min and max clamps default to SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE to
allow children to tighten the restriction */
return SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE;
}

and use tg_uclamp_none(clamp_id) instead of uclamp_none(UCLAMP_MAX)?
Functionally the same but much more readable.
