On Hamoa (X1E80100) IoT EVK the ADSP can restart repeatedly, and every
restart has a chance of taking the kernel down with it:

  Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fffffdffc1ffffc0
  Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000006
  CPU: 5 UID: 0 PID: 2766 Comm: adsprpcd
  pc : ___free_pages+0x24/0xe0
  Call trace:
    ___free_pages
    __free_pages
    __dma_direct_free_pages
    dma_direct_free
    dma_free_attrs
    fastrpc_context_free [fastrpc]
    fastrpc_internal_invoke [fastrpc]
    fastrpc_device_ioctl [fastrpc]

The faulting address decodes to a struct page for a PFN that has no
vmemmap backing. It comes from dma_free_coherent() being called against
a qcom,fastrpc-compute-cb device that of_platform_depopulate() has
already unbound: with the IOMMU torn down, the call falls through to
dma_direct_free(), which takes the buffer's IOVA for a physical address
and hands the resulting page to the page allocator.

fastrpc_rpmsg_remove() wakes every pending invoke with -EPIPE and then
immediately depopulates the context banks, with no synchronisation in
between, so woken threads race the teardown on their way to
fastrpc_context_free().
The series is ordered so each patch stands on its own:

  1/2 makes fastrpc_notify_users() wake poll-mode waiters, which today
      keep spinning on a buffer the teardown is about to reclaim.

  2/2 counts in-flight invokes and drains them before touching any
      channel resource.

fastrpc_notify_users() sets ctx->retval to -EPIPE and completes
ctx->work for every pending and interrupted context, which is enough to
release a thread blocked in fastrpc_wait_for_response().

A thread using polling mode does not wait on that completion. It spins
in poll_for_remote_response(), whose exit condition is:

  (val == FASTRPC_POLL_RESPONSE) || ctx->is_work_done

Since the DSP is already down, it will never write FASTRPC_POLL_RESPONSE
into the poll address, and is_work_done is left untouched by
fastrpc_notify_users(). The thread therefore keeps spinning until
FASTRPC_POLL_MAX_TIMEOUT_US expires instead of bailing out immediately.

Worse, the poll address lives inside ctx->buf, so a polling thread that
has not been told to stop is still reading a buffer that the SSR
teardown path is about to reclaim.

Set is_work_done along with retval so polling waiters observe the
termination on their next iteration, exactly like completion waiters do.

fastrpc_rpmsg_remove() clears cctx->rpdev, wakes every pending invoke
with -EPIPE through fastrpc_notify_users(), and then goes straight on to
of_platform_depopulate() the context bank devices, with nothing
synchronising the two:

 - The only thing stopping new work is the unlocked rpdev check at the
   top of fastrpc_internal_invoke(). A thread can observe a valid rpdev,
   get preempted, and resume in the middle of the teardown.

 - Invokes that were already admitted are woken and head for the bail:
   label, where fastrpc_context_put() releases ctx->buf through
   dma_free_coherent(). If the depopulate wins, the call runs against an
   unbound context bank and falls through to dma_direct_free(), which
   treats the IOVA as a physical address.

Close both windows under cctx->lock:

 - Add cctx->teardown, set at the start of fastrpc_rpmsg_remove().
   fastrpc_internal_invoke() checks it and, in the same critical
   section, increments cctx->invoke_cnt, so an invoke is either rejected
   or counted. The count is dropped on every return path.

 - fastrpc_rpmsg_remove() waits for invoke_cnt to reach zero before
   clearing rpdev and before touching any other channel resource.

The gate lives in fastrpc_internal_invoke() rather than in the ioctl
dispatcher so that it also covers fastrpc_device_release() ->
fastrpc_release_current_dsp_process(), which sends INIT_RELEASE outside
of any ioctl.

Teardown is kept separate from rpdev because the two have different
lifetimes: the gate must close immediately, whereas rpdev has to stay
valid until the admitted invokes have finished rpmsg_send(). Clearing
rpdev up front, as the code does today, lets an invoke that was sleeping
in an allocation dereference a NULL rpdev:

  Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
0000000000000358
  CPU: 2 UID: 0 PID: 2003 Comm: adsprpcd
  pc : fastrpc_internal_invoke+0xb40/0x1398 [fastrpc]
  Call trace:
    fastrpc_internal_invoke [fastrpc]
    fastrpc_device_release [fastrpc]
    __fput
    __arm64_sys_close

The faulting address is the offset of ept within struct rpmsg_device,
i.e. the cctx->rpdev->ept dereference in rpmsg_send().
