arm64: dts: juno: Add cpu dynamic-power-coefficient information
A CPUfreq driver, like the scpi driver used on Juno boards, which provide the Energy Model with power cost information via the PM_OPP of_dev_pm_opp_get_cpu_power() function, do need the dynamic-power-coefficient (C) in the device tree. Method used to obtain the C value: C is computed by measuring energy (E) consumption of a frequency domain (FD) over a 10s runtime (t) sysbench workload running at each Operating Performance Point (OPP) affine to 1 or 2 CPUs of that FD while the other CPUs of the system are hotplugged out. By definition all CPUs of a FD have the the same micro-architecture. An OPP is characterized by a certain frequency (f) and voltage (V) value. The corresponding power values (P) are calculated by dividing the delta of the E values between the runs with 2 and 1 CPUs by t. With n data tuples (P, f, V), n equal to number of OPPs for this frequency domain, we can solve C by: P = Pstat + Pdyn P = Pstat + CV²f Cx = (Px - P1)/(Vx²fx - V1²f1) with x = {2, ..., n} The C value is the arithmetic mean out of {C2, ..., Cn}. Since DVFS is broken on Juno r1, no dynamic-power-coefficient information has been added to its dts file.
