I see that this function has been created in response to Bjorn's comment [1]
about avoiding the dev_get_drvdata() call, but I would prefer to not use this
function as it hides the fact that the wait_for_completion() is occurring here.

Knowing where the waiting is happening is useful not just for understanding
code flow but also for debugging issues in the future.

This function is called qcom_scm_lookup_wq() but there is no looking up
occurring here. Could this comment be added for context?

/* FW currently only supports a single wq_ctx (zero).
 * TODO: Update this logic to include dynamic allocation and lookup of
 * completion structs when FW supports more wq_ctx values.
