Subject: [PATCH v2 00/19] remoteproc: Allow platform-specific drivers to request resources

Once this patch-set has been applied; platform-specific remoteproc
drivers will be able to amend existing resource table entries,
provide new entries to be appended to an existing resource table
(if one already exists), start a new resource table (if one does
not already exist), and dump out resource table contents during
development/debugging.  It will also be possible to start remote
processors which do not require a resource table without being
forced to provide a fake one.

We're also taking the liberty to provide some simple fix-ups.

V2 is rebased on "auto-boot" series. It also includes following addons:
- associate an action to the resource request. This allows platform-specific
  driver to verify firmware resources, update or append resources in firmware
  resource table or create a local resource table.
- introduce spare resource to define room for resource table extension
- centralize resource table sanity checks.

  remoteproc: core: Add function to verify an existing resource in rsc
    table
  remoteproc: core: Add function to get resource table spare bytes
    information
  remoteproc: core: Add vdev support and force mode to resource amending
    function
  remoteproc: core: Append resource only if spare resource present
  remoteproc: core: Add resource request action support
  remoteproc: core: Add function to verify resource table consistency
  remoteproc: core: Clean-up resource table sanity checks
  remotecore: core: Add resource table pointer argument to
    rproc_handle_resource
  remoteproc: core: Add function to create remoteproc local resource
    table
