Yes, this may fix the issue. However I would like to know if we need to support
multiple channels/shared memory simultaneously. It is fair requirement and
may need some work which should be fine.

Do you have any suggestions? Currently I have not worked out an good
solution.

TBH, I haven't given it a much thought. I would like to know if people
are happy with just one SMC channel for SCMI or do they need more ?
If they need it, we can try to solve it. Otherwise, what you have will
suffice IMO.

On our platforms we have one channel/shared memory area/mailbox instance
for all standard SCMI protocols, and we have a separate channel/shared
memory area/mailbox driver instance for a proprietary one. They happen
to have difference throughput requirements, hence the split.

If I read Peng's submission correctly, it seems to me that the usage
model described before is still fine.
