[RFC PATCH 04/10] firmware: arm_scmi: Add support for atomic transports

[Cristian Marussi]

An SCMI transport can declare itself as .atomic_capable in order to signal
to the SCMI core that all its transmit path can be executed in atomic
context: the core as a consequence will take care not to sleep to in the
corresponding rx path while waiting for a response or a delayed response.
