Subject: [PATCH v5 1/3] firmware: arm_scmi: support only one single SystemPower device

In order to minimize SCMI platform fw-side complexity, only one platform
should be in charge of SCMI SystemPower protocol communications with the
OSPM: enforce the existence of one single unique device associated with
SystemPower protocol across any possible number of SCMI platforms, and
warn if a system tries to register different SystemPower devices from
multiple platforms.
