firmware: qcom_scm: Reduce locking section for __get_convention()
We shouldn't need to hold this spinlock here around the entire SCM call into the firmware and back. Instead, we should be able to query the firmware, potentially in parallel with other CPUs making the same convention detection firmware call, and then grab the lock to update the calling convention detected. The convention doesn't change at runtime so calling into firmware more than once is possibly wasteful but simpler. Besides, this is the slow path, not the fast path where we've already detected the convention used. More importantly, this allows us to add more logic here to workaround the case where the firmware call to check for availability isn't implemented in the firmware at all. In that case we can check the firmware node compatible string and force a calling convention. Note that we remove the 'has_queried' logic that is repeated twice. That could lead to the calling convention being printed multiple times to the kernel logs if the bool is true but __query_convention() is running on multiple CPUs. We also shorten the time where the lock is held, but we keep the lock held around the printk because it doesn't seem hugely important to drop it for that.
