mainlining shenanigans

This transport enables communications with an SCMI platform through virtio; the SCMI platform will be represented by a virtio device. Implement an SCMI virtio driver according to the virtio SCMI device spec [1]. Virtio device id 32 has been reserved for the SCMI device [2]. The virtio transport has one Tx channel (virtio cmdq, A2P channel) and at most one Rx channel (virtio eventq, P2A channel). The following feature bit defined in [1] is not implemented: VIRTIO_SCMI_F_SHARED_MEMORY. The number of messages which can be pending simultaneously is restricted according to the virtqueue capacity negotiated at probing time. As soon as Rx channel message buffers are allocated or have been read out by the arm-scmi driver, feed them back to the virtio device. Since some virtio devices may not have the short response time exhibited by SCMI platforms using other transports, set a generous response timeout. SCMI polling mode is not supported by this virtio transport since deemed meaningless: polling mode operation is offered by the SCMI core to those transports that could not provide a completion interrupt on the TX path, which is never the case for virtio whose core callbacks can easily call into core scmi_rx_callback upon messages reception.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
