Include files at the top of the file please.  No need to ifdef them.
They're sorted alphabetically, so new additions should be alphabetical.
(That's a general rule - if something is already alphabetical, do not
make it non-alphabetical.)

Way too many lines for such a simple function.  This can be simplified
to just:

	struct cpu *cpu = container_of(dev, struct cpu, dev);

	return sprintf(buf, "%lu\n", arch_scale_cpu_capacity(NULL, cpu->dev.id);

If you don't like the last line ending on column 79, then feel free to
break it across two lines after the format string.

Unnecessary cast - kstrtoul takes a const char pointer, and in any case
it's really bad form to cast away the "const-ness" of any pointer.  So,
just:

	if (count) {
		ret = kstrtoul(buf, 0, &new_capacity);

should work just fine.

There's a move to use the named DEVICE_ATTR_RW() for this kind of thing,
it'll want the functions named xxx_show() and xxx_store().  I see
there's some recent patches to do this conversion across the kernel, so
this should probably be done before submission.

Hmm, this is really weird.  topology_init() in arch/arm/kernel/setup.c
is where these devices get created, and they're created at
subsys_initcall() time.  By that point, the list of possible CPUs has
to be static, it's not going to change.  I don't see why this has to be
done at late_initcall() - and since topology.c will be linked after
setup.c, I don't see why it shouldn't be at subsys_initcall() level to
follow on after topology_init().
