主题: [PATCH] firmware: arm_scmi: Set device ready before register scmi_virtio_driver
Fix irregularities in scmi driver probe.
After 'commit 20bda12a0ea0 ("firmware: arm_scmi: Make VirtIO transport a standalone driver")'
making SCMI VirtIO transport a standalone driver, `scmi_virtio_probe` will follow `scmi_vio_probe`, and during `scmi_virtio_probe`, it will do `scmi_probe` which will invoke function `scmi_protocol_acquire(handle, SCMI_PROTOCOL_BASE)`, and this function will send message via virtqueue and wait device's reply
Before this patch, only after `scmi_vio_probe`, frontend will mark device DRIVER_OK by function `virtio_dev_probe` in 'drivers/virtio/virtio.c' itself.
Accroding to chapter '3.1 Device Initialization' in virtio-spec, ``` The driver MUST NOT send any buffer available notifications to the device before setting DRIVER_OK.
```
In some type1-hypervisor, available buffer notifications will be intercepted until virtio driver is okay. In this case, `scmi_vio_probe` will be blocked at `scmi_wait_for_reply` and probe can never complete.
Therefore, the operation to set DRIVER_OK must follow perform device-specific setup immediately, then available buffer notifications can be sent in function `scmi_probe`.
