Let's not make assumptions. They're not needed to check if it has
support for something.

Yes HDCP uses crypto for something so those clock calls should
stay. If the clocks were used by a HDCP device then it would be
like the ocmem case, but it isn't.

Do we probe defer ocmem if scm isn't ready? Maybe we should name
it qcom_scm_is_probed() and have it return -EPROBE_DEFER if it
isn't probed and 0 if it is probed. Then drivers just call that
function and return the error if there is one. I'd rather not
litter scm_*() APIs with checks to see if the driver has probed
yet. Just let those crash the system. Of course, this probably
doesn't matter because we don't need to do any clock stuff here
anyway.
