The remoteproc coredump APIs are currently only part of the internal
remoteproc header. This prevents the remoteproc platform drivers from
using these APIs when needed. This change moves the rproc_coredump()
and rproc_coredump_cleanup() APIs to the linux header and marks them
as exported symbols.

Define a platform driver to manage the remoteproc virtio device as
a platform devices.
The platform device allows to pass rproc_vdev_data platform data to
specify properties that are stored in the rproc_vdev structure.
Such approach will allow to preserve legacy remoteproc virtio device
creation but also to probe the device using device tree mechanism.
remoteproc_virtio.c update:
- Add rproc_virtio_driver platform driver. The probe ops replaces
the rproc_rvdev_add_device function.
- All reference to the rvdev->dev has been updated to rvdev-pdev->dev.
- rproc_rvdev_release is removed as associated to the rvdev device.
- The use of rvdev->kref counter is replaced by get/put_device on the
remoteproc virtio platform device.
- The vdev device no longer increments rproc device counter.
increment/decrement is done in rproc_virtio_probe/rproc_virtio_remove
function in charge of the vrings allocation/free.
remoteproc_core.c update:
Migrate from the rvdev device to the rvdev platform device.
From this patch, when a vdev resource is found in the resource table
the remoteproc core register a platform device.

Move functions related to the management of the rproc_vdev
structure in the remoteproc_virtio.c.
The aim is to decorrelate as possible the virtio management from
the core part.
Due to the strong correlation between the vrings and the resource table
the rproc_alloc/parse/free_vring functions are kept in the remoteproc core.

In preparation of the migration of the management of rvdev in
remoteproc_virtio.c, this patch spins off a new function to manage the
remoteproc virtio device creation.
The rproc_rvdev_add_device will be moved to remoteproc_virtio.c.
The rproc_vdev_data structure is introduced to provide information for
the rvdev creation. This structure allows to manage the rvdev and vrings
allocation in the rproc_rvdev_add_device function.

Commit 7e83cab824a87e83cab824a8 ("remoteproc: Modify recovery path
to use rproc_{start,stop}()") replaces rproc_{shutdown,boot}() with
rproc_{stop,start}(), which skips destroy the virtio device at stop
but re-initializes it again at start.
Issue is that struct virtio_dev is not correctly reinitialized like done
at initial allocation thanks to kzalloc() and kobject is considered as
already initialized by kernel. That is due to the fact struct virtio_dev
is allocated and released at vdev resource handling level managed and
virtio device is registered and unregistered at rproc subdevices level.
Moreover kernel documentation mentions that device struct must be
zero initialized before calling device_initialize().
This patch disentangles struct virtio_dev from struct rproc_vdev as
the two struct don't have the same life-cycle.
struct virtio_dev is now allocated on rproc_start() and released
on rproc_stop().
This patch applies on top of patch

Extend the previous operation of finding the resource table in the ELF
with the extra step of populating the rproc struct with a copy and the
size. This allows drivers to override the mechanism used for acquiring
the resource table, or omit it for firmware that is known not to have a
resource table.
This leaves the custom, dummy, find_rsc_table implementations found in

There are currently a few different schemes used for overriding fw_ops

Dynamically allocate the vrings' DMA when the remote processor
is about to be powered on (i.e. when ->find_vqs() is invoked),
and release them as soon as it is powered off (i.e. when ->del_vqs()
is invoked).
The obvious and immediate benefit is better memory utilization, since
memory for the vrings is now only allocated when the relevant remote
processor is used.
Additionally, this approach also makes recovery of a (crashing)
remote processor easier: one just needs to remove the relevant
vdevs, and the entire vrings cleanup takes place automagically.

Now that the resource table supports publishing a virtio device
in a single resource entry, firmware images can start supporting
more than a single vdev.
This patch removes the single vdev limitation of the remoteproc
framework so multi-vdev firmwares can be leveraged: VDEV resource
entries are parsed when the rproc is registered, and as a result
their vrings are set up and the virtio devices are registered
(and they go away when the rproc goes away).
Moreover, we no longer only support VIRTIO_ID_RPMSG vdevs; any
virtio device type goes now. As a result, there's no more any
rpmsg-specific APIs or code in remoteproc: it all becomes generic
virtio handling.

Modern SoCs typically employ a central symmetric multiprocessing (SMP)
application processor running Linux, with several other asymmetric
multiprocessing (AMP) heterogeneous processors running different instances
of operating system, whether Linux or any other flavor of real-time OS.
Booting a remote processor in an AMP configuration typically involves:
- Loading a firmware which contains the OS image
- Allocating and providing it required system resources (e.g. memory)
- Programming an IOMMU (when relevant)
- Powering on the device
This patch introduces a generic framework that allows drivers to do
that. In the future, this framework will also include runtime power
management and error recovery.
