Which mainline kernel version you use in pixel6?

Could you elaborate a bit how is it possible?
Do you have the sg_policy setup properly (and at right time)?
Do you have the cpu capacity from arch_scale_cpu_capacity()
set correctly and at the right time during this cpufreq
governor setup?

IIRC in Android there is a different code for setting up the
cpufreq sched governor clones. In mainline we don't have to do
those tricks, so this might be the main difference.

Could you trace the value that is read from
arch_scale_cpu_capacity() and share it with us?
I suspect this value changes in time in your kernel.
