In short we shouldn't have to add a node if there are no consumers. It
was one of the topic of discussion initially when SCMI binding was added
and they exist only for the consumers otherwise we don't need it as
everything is discoverable from the interface.

If a node has its own channel, the of_node is still needed.

i.MX95 SCMI firmware not have dedicated channel for 0x12, and no need
of_node. This patchset is to support protocol 0x12 without the procotol
node in device tree.

Without of_node, still need to create the scmi devices. As of now,
it is based on an array 'protocols[]' in 'scmi_probe'. 

And no of_node, means no per protocol channel, so reuse the base
protocol channel. Need patch chan_available to support.
