GXM (S912) is a big-little design with CPUs 0-3 clocked at 1.5GHz
and CPUs 4-7 at 1.0GHz. Adding capacity-dmips-mhz attributes allows
the scheduler to factor the different clock speeds into capacity
calculations and prefer the higher-clocked cluster to improve
overall performance.
This was inspired by the similar change for G12B [0] boards. The
diference here is that all cores are A53's so the same dmips-mhz
value is used.
VIM2:~ # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq

VIM2:~ # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpu_capacity

VIM2:~ # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpu_capacity
1024
1024

677

The after value matches my table-napkin calculation:
(1000000 / 1512000 = 0.661) * 1024 = 677

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
