arm64: topology: fix arch_freq_get_on_cpu() overflow above 4.19 GHz
arch_freq_get_on_cpu() computes the product of the frequency scale and the reference frequency as a u64, but assigns it to an unsigned int before shifting it back down: freq = scale * arch_scale_freq_ref(cpu); freq >>= SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT; The product is truncated to 32 bits before the shift, so the result wraps once arch_scale_freq_ref() exceeds 2^32 / SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE, i.e. 4194304 kHz. On a Snapdragon X2 Elite (Glymur) laptop, whose boost OPP is 4723200 kHz, cpuinfo_avg_freq reports 524283 kHz instead of ~4723200 kHz while the CPU demonstrably runs at the boost frequency: a fixed workload completes in 1.72 s at the 4723200 kHz OPP versus 2.01 s at 4032000 kHz, matching the 1.171 frequency ratio. Shift the u64 product and narrow only at the return.
