The copy/paste from feec() was too quick. It should be :
+ if ((fits < best_fits) ||
+ ((fits == best_fits) && (cpu_cap > best_cap))) {
I don't think that the split gives any benefit but makes it more
difficult to read. I will add a comment
/*
* Select the CPU which fits better first (-1 being better than 0).
* Then, select the one with the largest capacity at the same level.

While debugging, I got random util_min|max values passed to
util_fits_cpu(). I agree that this is not a real problem because it
means that !uclamp_is_used() and the values will not be used in
util_fits_cpu() in this case but this is a hidden dependency which
seems a bit weak.
I can probably remove it from this patch as it's out of the scope

But we want a cpu that fits in priority then the one with the smallest delta.

my mistake... This should be
+ if ((max_fits > best_fits) ||
+ ((max_fits == best_fits) && (cur_delta <
best_delta))) {
I'm going to prepare a new version
