[PATCH] remoteproc: mediatek: Don't print error when optional scp handle is missing

[Nícolas F. R. A. Prado]

The scp_get() helper has two users: the mtk-vcodec and the mtk-mdp3
drivers. mdp3 considers the mediatek,scp phandle optional, and when it's
missing mdp3 will directly look for the scp node based on compatible.

For that reason printing an error in the helper when the handle is
missing is wrong, as it's not always an actual error. Besides, the other
user, vcodec, already prints an error message on its own when the helper
fails so this message doesn't add that much information.

Remove the error message from the helper. This gets rid of the deceptive
error on MT8195-Tomato:

  mtk-mdp3 14001000.dma-controller: can't get SCP node

I'm way more for giving it a SCP handle instead of silencing this print... the
SCP handle way *is* the correct one and I prefer it, as that'd also be the only
way to support Dual-Core SCP in MDP3.

I really want to see hardcoded stuff disappear and I really really *really* want
to see more consistency across DT nodes in MediaTek platforms.

So, still a one-line change, but do it on the devicetree instead of here please.

Cheers,
Angelo

Sure. So the missing scp phandle case is maintained exclusively for
backwards-compatibility. And we're ok that the old DTs will keep getting the
error.

I'll send a v2 adding the phandle in the DT instead.

Thanks,
