[PATCH 0/4] firmware: arm_scmi: Fix protocol parsing and validation

Hi,

This series fixes a few SCMI protocol parsing and validation issues found
while checking the driver message layouts against the SCMI specification.

The first patch fixes a clear response width mismatch in SENSOR_CONFIG_GET,
where the driver requested a 4-byte response but read it as a 64-bit value.

The next two patches harden notification parsing for variable-sized payloads.
BASE_ERROR_EVENT and SENSOR_UPDATE both carry counted trailing arrays, so the
received payload size must be validated before copying or parsing those
entries.

The final patch fixes Powercap protocol v2 helpers to validate the domain id
before accessing cached per-domain state.

No functional change is intended for well-formed SCMI responses.
