You should terminate your sentences with a period, and I would stay more
generic, no need to detail the changes in the commit log.

Some times there is not so much to say more than what is expressed in
the title :D .... I would only stress that new support for SCMI statistics is
added and that such support is optional, configurable at build-time and
OFF by default...

" SCMI Raw mode" .... this is unrelated to Raw mode...probably just a leftover
from V2 ... to be dropped...

You should definitely call this something more specific like SCMI_DEBUG_COUNTERS_LAST.

Also, I would move this enum definitions to common.h since in the near
future we could want to track more stats from other area of the stack...
(i.e. outside this driver.c file)..and also because scmi_log_stats is
already defined in common.h

I would also move this dbg_stats inside scmi_debug_info and name it just
plain as 'stats' so that you will then access it as 

	info->dbg.stats

...unless I miss something about scoping and it is problematic...

...while at that, I would also place the new stats[] field as last in the
scni_debug_info structure...this is because, even though you are a building
a real array of atomic, up until now in the seris you are indeed introducing
(apparently to static analyzers) a zero-length array (since LAST is zero)....
...and I think gcc/llvm or static analyzers would complain if thet see an
arr[0] placed NOT as the last elemnt of a struct

Thanks,
Cristian
