Subject: [PATCH v4 2/2] firmware: arm_scmi: optee: use optee system invocation

Changes SCMI optee transport to request an OP-TEE system invocation
context per SCMI channel. This prevents possible deadlock when many
Linux clients invoke OP-TEE are all suspended waiting for an OP-TEE
RPC request access an SCMI resource through the SCMI OP-TEE PTA service.

Signed-off-by: Etienne Carriere <etienne.carriere@...aro.org>

No change since v3

Changes since v2:
- Fixed syntax issues (missing ';' chars), reported by kernel test robot.

Changes since v1:
- Updated to use new tee API functions tee_client_request_system_context()
  and tee_client_release_system_context().
