sched/fair: Get rid of scaling utilization by capacity_orig

Utilization is currently scaled by capacity_orig, but since we now have
frequency and cpu invariant cfs_rq.avg.util_avg, frequency and cpu scaling
now happens as part of the utilization tracking itself.
So cfs_rq.avg.util_avg should no longer be scaled in cpu_util().

  * cpu_util returns the amount of capacity of a CPU that is used by CFS
  * tasks. The unit of the return value must be the one of capacity so we can
  * compare the utilization with the capacity of the CPU that is available for
  * CFS task (ie cpu_capacity).
- * cfs.avg.util_avg is the sum of running time of runnable tasks on a
- * CPU. It represents the amount of utilization of a CPU in the range
- * [0..SCHED_LOAD_SCALE]. The utilization of a CPU can't be higher than the
- * full capacity of the CPU because it's about the running time on this CPU.
- * Nevertheless, cfs.avg.util_avg can be higher than SCHED_LOAD_SCALE
- * because of unfortunate rounding in util_avg or just
- * after migrating tasks until the average stabilizes with the new running
- * time. So we need to check that the utilization stays into the range
- * [0..cpu_capacity_orig] and cap if necessary.
- * Without capping the utilization, a group could be seen as overloaded (CPU0
- * utilization at 121% + CPU1 utilization at 80%) whereas CPU1 has 20% of
- * available capacity.
+ *
+ * cfs_rq.avg.util_avg is the sum of running time of runnable tasks plus the
+ * recent utilization of currently non-runnable tasks on a CPU. It represents
+ * the amount of utilization of a CPU in the range [0..capacity_orig] where
+ * capacity_orig is the cpu_capacity available at the highest frequency
+ * (arch_scale_freq_capacity()).
+ * The utilization of a CPU converges towards a sum equal to or less than the
+ * current capacity (capacity_curr <= capacity_orig) of the CPU because it is
+ * the running time on this CPU scaled by capacity_curr.
+ *
+ * Nevertheless, cfs_rq.avg.util_avg can be higher than capacity_curr or even
+ * higher than capacity_orig because of unfortunate rounding in
+ * cfs.avg.util_avg or just after migrating tasks and new task wakeups until
+ * the average stabilizes with the new running time. We need to check that the
+ * utilization stays within the range of [0..capacity_orig] and cap it if
+ * necessary. Without utilization capping, a group could be seen as overloaded
+ * (CPU0 utilization at 121% + CPU1 utilization at 80%) whereas CPU1 has 20% of
+ * available capacity. We allow utilization to overshoot capacity_curr (but not
+ * capacity_orig) as it useful for predicting the capacity required after task
+ * migrations (scheduler-driven DVFS).
