Hi Florian,

thanks for the review first of all !

Right, I thought that and finally I left it as it is because in the last
patch of the series I introduce modularization and this struct gets an
owner field which get set by scmi_protocol_register() transparently
through a dance of macros wrapper carrying THIS_MODULE reference, the
alternative would be to just make this const as you said and have the
user explicitly set .owner = THIS_MODULE once the const struct is
defined...it feels now this const approach would fit better even if
requires the user defining a new protocol to explicitly set the .owner
field.

In fact Sudeep pointed out this, as of now I left this as it is for
simplicity but I'll rework this to use some cheaper container data struct.

Yes right, here I return -EPROBEDEFER once I introduce modularization
later on in the series, but is defintely better to return this err codes
straight away from scmi_get_protocol() as you said.

Of course, I'll do.
