[PATCH 1/3] firmware: arm_scmi: Fix null pointer dereference during fastchannel init

The scmi_perf_domain_lookup requires the protocol handle to have the
private data set, which is yet to happen during the fastchannel init
scenario. This results in a null pointer dereference. Fix this by using
the pre-populated perf_dom_info to pass on the required information
instead.
