Subject: [Patch v5 4/6] sched/fair: update cpu_capcity to reflect thermal pressure

cpu_capacity relflects the maximum available capacity of a cpu. Thermal
pressure on a cpu means this maximum available capacity is reduced. This
patch reduces the average thermal pressure for a cpu from its maximum
available capacity so that cpu_capacity reflects the actual
available capacity.

Other signals that are deducted from cpu_capacity to reflect the actual
capacity available are rt and dl util_avg. util_avg tracks a binary signal
and uses the weights 1024 and 0. Whereas thermal pressure is tracked
using load_avg. load_avg uses the actual "delta" capacity as the weight.
