Unless you play with SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT, the max should be 1024 -
i.e. SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE. That's a really big boost, but that's for you to
benchmark.

You'll have to use the schedutil governor for uclamp to have an effect. And
arguably that's what you should be using, unless something explicitly
prevents you from doing that.
