I like the gist of this, but I have two issues from the Qualcomm land
that I think would tie into a slightly more generic version of this.

1) Registering carveouts from memory-regions, without having a resource
   table.
2) Tying the Qualcomm shared memory implementation to the appropriate
   remoteproc instance (e.g. for crash handling).

I also think we should match the subdev with entries from the resource
table based on some key, so that we don't add a limitation of only
having a single carveout per rproc.

I will do some prototyping based on your patch and will get back to you.
