[PATCH 03/22] firmware: arm_scmi: Fix Base list protocols enumeration

While enumerating protocols implemented by the SCMI backend server using
BASE_DISCOVER_LIST_PROTOCOLS, the number of returned protocols is currently
validated in an improper way since the check employs a sum between unsigned
integers that could overflow and cause the check itself to be silently
bypassed if the returned value 'loop_num_ret' is big enough.

Fix the validation avoiding the addition.
