Unfortunately no. Please don't ask me why ;) as there's no technical reason
to not standardize it. I pushed hard for it, but for this particular case the
SMC/HVC transport is considered to be outside the SCMI protocol standards as
it's transport related.

I completely agree it is total non-sense. I will try to convince them showing
this discussion as reference but can't guarantee anything.
