Create a new method to get a unique and fixed max frequency. Currently
cpuinfo.max_freq or the highest (or last) state of performance domain are
used as the max frequency when computing the frequency for a level of
utilization, but:
- cpuinfo_max_freq can change at runtime. boost is one example of
such change.
- cpuinfo.max_freq and last item of the PD can be different leading to
different results between cpufreq and energy model.
We need to save the reference frequency that has been used when computing
the CPUs capacity and use this fixed and coherent value to convert between
frequency and CPU's capacity.
In fact, we already save the frequency that has been used when computing
the capacity of each CPU. We extend the precision to save kHz instead of
MHz currently and we modify the type to be aligned with other variables
used when converting frequency to capacity and the other way.

Alexandre Ghiti <alexghiti@rivosinc.com> says:
After multiple attempts, this patchset is now based on the fact that the
64b kernel mapping was moved outside the linear mapping.
The first patch allows to build relocatable kernels but is not selected
by default. That patch is a requirement for KASLR.
The second and third patches take advantage of an already existing powerpc
script that checks relocations at compile-time, and uses it for riscv.
* b4-shazam-merge:
riscv: Use --emit-relocs in order to move .rela.dyn in init
riscv: Check relocations at compile time
powerpc: Move script to check relocations at compile time in scripts/
riscv: Introduce CONFIG_RELOCATABLE
riscv: Move .rela.dyn outside of init to avoid empty relocations
riscv: Prepare EFI header for relocatable kernels

RISC-V now manages CPU topology using arch_topology which provides
CPU capacity and frequency related interfaces to access the cpu/freq
invariant in possible heterogeneous or DVFS-enabled platforms.
Here adds topology.h file to export the arch_topology interfaces for
replacing the scheduler's constant-based cpu/freq invariant accounting.
