I have a carveout declared in firmware resource table for co-processor code and data, and st driver has a specific 
reserved memory region to fit fix address space requested by co-processor.
So CPU access to code and loaded resource table area is granted thanks to allocation done by rproc_handle_carveout().

Recovery no available on B2260, but I'll test it on another platform this week
