I am not sure that's really needed, we could perhaps go with the
new ratios that you got, since the existing ratios are perhaps
tuned (more usecases run than just dhrystone) for the downstream
Android scheduler.
One other thing that's perhaps tuned is the capacity-dmips-mhz,
and if the same argument applies to that (that they can't be
scaled and need to be measured with just dhrystone)
then those might need an update along with this as well, else it
just throws the power/perf balance out.
