Does this result in removal of scmi_dev associated with devm_* calls ?
Otherwise we may need to free the allocated buffers ? I am not sure
if the dev here is individual scmi_dev or the platform scmi device.
I assume latter and it is unlikely to be removed/freed with the error in
the above path.

Similarly in couple of other instances/protocols.
