If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Quentin Perret [ Upstream commit 8fe5c5a937d0f4e84221631833a2718afde52285 ] When a new task wakes-up for the first time, its initial utilization is set to half of the spare capacity of its CPU. The current implementation of post_init_entity_util_avg() uses SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE directly as a capacity reference. As a result, on a big.LITTLE system, a new task waking up on an idle little CPU will be given ~512 of util_avg, even if the CPU's capacity is significantly less than that. Fix this by computing the spare capacity with arch_scale_cpu_capacity().
