Ohad Ben-Cohen 9cd8eb433c remoteproc/omap: two Kconfig fixes
1. Depend on OMAP_IOMMU instead of selecting it, to fix an unmet
   direct dependency of it (and its imminent build error)
2. Set default to 'no' (achieved implicitly by dropping the 'default'
   line)

Ohad Ben-Cohen 489d129a2f remoteproc: depend on EXPERIMENTAL
Remoteproc is still under development and as it gets traction we
definitely expect to do some changes in the binary format (most probably
only in the resource table, e.g. the upcoming move to TLV-based entries).

Active testing and use of remoteproc is most welcome, but we don't want
users to expect backward binary compatibility with the preliminary
images we have today.

Therefore mark remoteproc as EXPERIMENTAL, and explicitly inform the user
about this when a new remote processor is registered.

Ohad Ben-Cohen 650d65611e remoteproc: add Kconfig menu
Add a dedicated Kconfig menu for the remoteproc drivers, so they
don't show up in the main driver menu.

Ohad Ben-Cohen 34ed5a33b1 remoteproc/omap: add a remoteproc driver for OMAP4
Add a remoteproc driver for OMAP4, so we can boot the dual-M3 and
and DSP subsystems.

Use the omap_device_* API to control the hardware state, and utilize
the OMAP mailbox to interrupt the remote processor when a new message
is pending (the mailbox payload is used to tell it which virtqueue was
the message placed in).

Conversely, when an inbound mailbox message arrives, tell the remoteproc
core which virtqueue is triggered.

Later we will also use the mailbox payload to signal omap-specific
events like remote crashes (which will be used to trigger remoteproc
recovery) and power management transitions. At that point we will also
extend the remoteproc core to support this.

Ohad Ben-Cohen 400e64df6b remoteproc: add framework for controlling remote processors
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.

Based on (but now quite far from) work done by Fernando Guzman Lugo
<fernando.lugo@ti.com>.

ELF loader was written by Mark Grosen <mgrosen@ti.com>, based on
msm's Peripheral Image Loader (PIL) by Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org>.
