Is there some common guidance on this ? I'd be all for dropping messages
instead of adding them, but there seems to be a perpetual battle between
people who want to log everything and people concerned about logging noise.
As maintainer I always seem to be stuck between those two camps.

SCMI client drivers do not consistently log the number of supported
entities discovered from firmware. This information is useful during
debugging because it shows which domains or resources were exposed by
firmware during probe.

Add logging of the number of supported entities to the SCMI cpufreq,
pinctrl, reset, hwmon, and powercap client drivers after a successful
probe. This aligns these drivers with the existing logging in the SCMI
power and performance domain drivers.
