H A Dmt8173.dtsi7fcef92d Thu Jan 12 20:30:05 CST 2017 Daniel Kurtz <djkurtz@chromium.org> arm64: dts: mt8173: Fix cpu_thermal cooling-maps contributions

According to [0], the contribution field for each cooling-device express
their relative power efficiency. Higher weights express higher power
efficiency. Weighting is relative such that if each cooling device has a
weight of 1 they are considered equal. This is particularly useful in
heterogeneous systems where two cooling devices may perform the same kind
of compute, but with different efficiency.

According to Mediatek IC designer, the power efficiency ratio between the
LITTLE core cluster (cooling-device cpu0) and big core cluster
(cooling-device cpu1) is around 3:1 (3072:1024).
