[RFC LINUX PATCH 00/19] Allow master to restart without restarting slave

[Wendy Liang <wendy.liang@xilinx.com>]

This patch allows remoteproc master to restart without restarting the slave

remoteproc master starts a remote, it will check the following:
* if the remote is running,
  * if yes, it will check if therere is firmware checksum in the rsc table
     * if yes, it will calculate the firmware checksum with the loadable
       firmware sections, and compare the one in the rsc table
       * if the checksum matches, remtoeproc thinks it is already running
         the firmware, and it will not reboot the remote. However, it will
         set the virtio status to request virtio remotepro reset. The
         remote should reset virtio related when it sees the virtio status
         shows the master requested reset.

* if the remote is running, but not running the expected firmware, it will
  stop the remote and then boot it.

* if the remote is not running, it will load the firmware and start the
  remote.
