[Patch v3 2/7] sched: Add infrastructure to store and update instantaneous thermal pressure

Add thermal.c and thermal.h files that provides interface
APIs to initialize, update/average, track, accumulate and decay
thermal pressure per cpu basis. A per cpu structure max_capacity_info is
introduced to keep track of instantaneous per cpu thermal pressure.
Thermal pressure is the delta between max_capacity and cap_capacity.
API update_periodic_maxcap is called for periodic accumulate and decay
of the thermal pressure. It is to to be called from a periodic tick
function. This API calculates the delta between max_capacity and
cap_capacity and passes on the delta to update_thermal_avg to do the
necessary accumulate, decay and average. API update_maxcap_capacity is for
the system to update the thermal pressure by updating cap_capacity.
Considering, update_periodic_maxcap reads cap_capacity and
update_maxcap_capacity writes into cap_capacity, one can argue for
some sort of locking mechanism to avoid a stale value.
But considering update_periodic_maxcap can be called from a system
critical path like scheduler tick function, a locking mechanism is not
ideal. This means that it is possible the value used to
calculate average thermal pressure for a cpu can be stale for upto 1
tick period.
