The Odroid-XU3/4 is a decent and easy accessible ARM big.LITTLE platform,
which might be used for research and development.

This small patch set provides possibility to run Energy Aware Scheduler (EAS)
on Odroid-XU4/3 and experiment with it. 

The patch 1 enables SCHED_MC, which adds another level in sched_domain.
The patch 2 provides 'dynamic-power-coefficient' in CPU DT nodes, which is
then is used by the Energy Model (EM).
The patch 3 enables EM and makes EAS possible to run. Please read the commit
message in the patch 3 describing how to enable or disable EAS at runtime.
Some of the test results are provided also in there.

The patch set is on top of Krzysztof's tree, branch 'next/dt' [1] and has 
been tested on Odroid-XU3.

Regards,
Lukasz Luba
