Hi Peng,

Thanks for your review. I should give the most reasonable explanation
for why SCP 1 is a subnode.

Adding SCP 1 as a subnode helps to assure finish probing SCP 1
before starting SCP 0 by using of_platform_populate. It's because
that I want to probe SCP 1 as a remoteproc subdevice of SCP 0.
such that when SCP 0 crashed, SCP 0 can reboot SCP 1.
