I did few tests on this showing that this approach does not cover all use cases.

The first one is a firmware without resource table. In this case table_ptr
should be null, or we have to consider the -ENOENT error as a non error usecase.

The second one, more tricky, is a firmware started by the remoteproc framework.
In this case the resource table address is retrieved from the ELF file by the
core part.
So if we detach and reattach rproc_get_loaded_rsc_table cannot return the
address. Look to me that we should have also an alocation of the clean_table in
rproc_start and then to keep the memory allocated until a shutdown.

That said regarding the complexity to re-attach, I wonder if it would not be
better to focus first on a simple detach, and address the reattachment in a
separate series, to move forward in stages.

Regards,
Arnaud
