I'm not convinced this is not just pointless churn. Aren't we going to
end up with 2 compatible strings for everything? SCMI should just change
the providers, but otherwise the consumers are the same. I suppose if
clocks are abstracted into power-domains (an abuse IMO) then the
bindings change.
Why do we need to support both SCMI and not-SCMI for the same chip?
