LGTM. The open source SCMI server implementations I'm aware of (scp-firmware, tf-a and optee-os) all report SCMI Base protocol version v2.0.
Reviewed-by: Etienne Carriere <etienne.carriere at foss.st.com>

That said, maybe a more flexible implementation would support both version v1.0 (0x10000) and v2.0
but disable permission commands for v1.0 compliant servers. Maybe in a later change, if there is a need for.
I fear using such strict minima protocol version values for other SCMI procotols make U-Boot client too restrictive.

BR,
Etienne
