How about removing update_thermal_pressure altogether and doing all the
work in update_sched_max_capacity? That is, have
update_sched_max_capacity compute the capped_freq_ratio, do the
normalization, and set it per_cpu for all CPUs in the frequency domain.
You'll save some calculations that you're now doing in
update_thermal_pressure for each cpu and you avoid shifting back and
forth.
If you're doing so it would be worth renaming update_sched_max_capacity
to something like update_sched_thermal_pressure.
