Duplicate opps reported by buggy SCP firmware currently show up
as warnings even though the only functional impact is that the

user by using dev_info instead, along with FW_BUG tag.

I was hoping you could make the error message a bit more informative as
well, for example, by saying that a duplicate opp level was ignored:
arm-scmi arm-scmi.0.auto: [Firmware Bug]: Ignoring duplicate OPP 3417600 for NCC
I did think about doing something similar but xa_insert can fail
with both -EXIST (duplicate) and -ENOMEM, so the we can't really
use term duplicate when insert fails. I can add the perf level
though to the message though.
-Sibi
or similar (e.g. as the current message looks like an error, with errno
and all, that indeed warrants warning level).
Perhaps with such a message you could even keep the warning level to
make it stand out more (if that's desirable) without the risk of scaring
users.
