Subject: [PATCH v5 13/23] PM: EM: Add performance field to struct em_perf_state

The performance doesn't scale linearly with the frequency. Also, it may
be different in different workloads. Some CPUs are designed to be
particularly good at some applications e.g. images or video processing
and other CPUs in different. When those different types of CPUs are
combined in one SoC they should be properly modeled to get max of the HW
in Energy Aware Scheduler (EAS). The Energy Model (EM) provides the
power vs. performance curves to the EAS, but assumes the CPUs capacity
is fixed and scales linearly with the frequency. This patch allows to
adjust the curve on the 'performance' axis as well.
