The System Controller Firmware (SCFW) controls RTC, thermal
and WDOG etc., these resources' interrupt function are managed
by SCU. When any IRQ pending, SCU will notify Linux via MU general
interrupt channel #3, and Linux kernel needs to call SCU APIs
to get IRQ status and notify each module to handle the interrupt.
Since there is no data transmission for SCU IRQ notification, so
doorbell mode is used for this MU channel, and SCU driver will
use notifier mechanism to broadcast to every module which registers
the SCU block notifier.

The System Controller Firmware (SCFW) is a low-level system function
which runs on a dedicated Cortex-M core to provide power, clock, and
resource management. It exists on some i.MX8 processors. e.g. i.MX8QM
(QM, QP), and i.MX8QX (QXP, DX).
This patch implements the SCU firmware IPC function and the common
message sending API sc_call_rpc.
