x86/aperfmperf: Erase stale arch_freq_scale values when disabling frequency invariance readings
Once disable_freq_invariance_work is called the scale_freq_tick function will not compute or update the arch_freq_scale values. However the scheduler will still read these values and use them. The result is that the scheduler might perform unfair decisions based on stale values. This patch adds the step of setting the arch_freq_scale values for all cpus to the default (max) value SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE, Once all cpus have the same arch_freq_scale value the scaling is meaningless.
