sched/doc: supplement CPU capacity with RISC-V
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This commit 7d20783 ("dt-bindings: arm: move cpu-capacity to a
shared loation") updates some references about capacity-dmips-mhz
property in this document.

The list of architectures using capacity-dmips-mhz omits RISC-V, so
supplements it here.
