FWIW, with the latest versions of the EAS series, we don't expose the
capacity of the various OPPs directly any more. You have 'frequency',
'power' and a more abstract thing called 'cost' (which is useful for
energy computations) in the sysfs files of the EM.

We decided to remove the 'capacity' file to simplify things quite a bit,
and because it wasn't helping much. I'm talking about this discussion w/
Dietmar on v4:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180717141955.GA4496@e108498-lin.cambridge.arm.com/

But it is also true that we could add back that 'capacity' file if it
makes sense for uclamp. It's just an additional show() function in
energy_model.c, so no problem on that side per se.

The only problem is if you want to use uclamp w/o EAS, I guess ...

Thanks,
Quentin
