Describe the layer which enables SCMI over SMC calls forwarding
to EL3 FW if issued by Dom0. If the SCMI firmware node is not
found in Dom0's DT during initialization, it fails silently
as it's not mandatory.

The SCMI SMCs trapping at EL2 now lets Dom0 perform SCMI ops for
interacting with system-level resources almost as if it would be
running natively.
