Subject: [PATCH 1/1] remoteproc: correct rproc_free_vring() to avoid invalid kernel paging

If rproc_start() failed, rproc_resource_cleanup() is called to clean
debufs entries, then associated iommu mappings, carveouts and vdev.
Issue occurs when rproc_free_vring() is trying to reset vring resource
table entry.
At this time, table_ptr is pointing on loaded resource table and carveouts
amready released, so access to loaded resource table is generating a kernel
paging error:

[   12.696535] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address f0f357cc

[   12.696667] LR is at rproc_free_vring+0x70/0xbc [remoteproc]

This patch proposes to simply remove reset of resource table vring entries,
as firmware and resource table are reloaded at each rproc boot.
rproc_trigger_recovery() not impacted as resources not touched during recovery
procedure.
