remoteproc: imx_rproc: detect and attach to pre-booted remote cores

When the Cortex-M remote core is started and already running before
Linux boots (typically by the Cortex-A bootloader using a command like
bootaux), the current driver is unable to attach to it. This is because
the driver only checks for remote cores running in different SCU
partitions. However in this case, the M-core is in the same partition as
Linux and is already powered up and running by the bootloader.

This patch adds a check using dev_pm_genpd_is_on() to verify whether the
M-core's power domains are already on. If all power domain devices are
on, the driver assumes the M-core is running and proceed to attach to
it.

To accomplish this, we need to avoid passing any attach_data or flags to
dev_pm_domain_attach_list(), allowing the platform device become a
consumer of the power domain provider without changing its current
state.

During probe, also enable and sync the device runtime PM to make sure
the power domains are correctly managed when the core is controlled by
the kernel.
