register_cpu_capacity_sysctl() adds a property to sysfs that describes
the CPUs capacity. This is done from a subsys_initcall() that assumes
all possible CPUs are registered.

With CPU hotplug, possible CPUs aren't registered until they become
present, (or for arm64 enabled). This leads to messages during boot:
| register_cpu_capacity_sysctl: too early to get CPU1 device!
and once these CPUs are added to the system, the file is missing.

Move this to a cpuhp callback, so that the file is created once
CPUs are brought online. This covers CPUs that are added late by
mechanisms like hotplug.
One observable difference is the file is now missing for offline CPUs.
