Subject: [PATCH 2/4] remoteproc: Introduce rproc_change_firmware

It is often desirable to be able to change the running firmware on a
remote processor dynamically. This used to require a complete
destruction and readdition of the struct rproc, but now that the
firmware name is fixed length, it can be updated freely.

So long as the remote processor is in RPROC_OFFLINE state,
rproc_change_firmware() will free resources from the previous firmware
and request a new one be loaded.
