Looks good to me. I would like to hear from Jim if possible. I plan to merge this ASAP.
Hi, LGTM, I appreciate this change. For testing, I fed your sample output to this: perl -MData::Dumper -nae 's/^.+scmi_msg_dump:// && print Dumper { (map { split /=/; } split" ") }' < scmi.txt which gives this $VAR1 = { 'pt' => '15', 'seq' => '0000', 'pyld' => '000000000800000009daffffffffffff008268d4c075fd1611daffffffffffff008268d4c075fd1619daffffffffffff008268d4c075fd16', 'msg_id' => '01', 's' => '0', 't' => 'NOTI' }; which is what I wanted. BTW, if I ever write a script that would take this SCMI trace text and decode it to nice cmd names and arguments -- where would I submit such a script?

After reading this, the first thoughts were scripts/ or tools/scripts but looking at the content I am less sure about latter. Worth posting and then check what people have to say once this lands upstream. Or even once this is merged into -next officially.
