May I suggest a slight rewording here and in the commit description,
This is because the thermal pressure signal is weighted "delta"
capacity unlike util_avg which is binary.
It would also help, if you expanded on what you mean by binary in the
commit description and how the delta capacity is weighted.

This could be shortened to:
Delta capacity of cpu = Actual capacity - Decreased capacity due to
thermal event
