This new field 'cpu_capacity_orig' reflects the original capacity of a CPU
before being altered by rt tasks and/or IRQ
The cpu_capacity_orig will be used:
- to detect when the capacity of a CPU has been noticeably reduced so we can
trig load balance to look for a CPU with better capacity. As an example, we
can detect when a CPU handles a significant amount of irq
(with CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING) but this CPU is seen as an idle CPU by
scheduler whereas CPUs, which are really idle, are available.
- evaluate the available capacity for CFS tasks
