So can I suggest a SCHED_DEBUG validation of the data provided?

Given the above table, it _never_ makes sense to run at .cap=150, it
equally also doesn't make sense to run at .cap = 301.

So please add a SCHED_DEBUG test on domain creation that validates that
not only is the .cap monotonically increasing, but the .power is too.
