Subject: [PATCH V2] remoteproc: support self recovery after rproc crash

From: Peng Fan <peng.fan@....com>

Current logic only support main processor to stop/start the remote
processor after rproc crash. However to SoC, such as i.MX8QM/QXP, the
remote processor could do self recovery after crash and trigger watchdog
reboot. It does not need main processor to load image, stop/start M4
core.

This patch add a new flag to indicate whether the SoC has self recovery
capability. And introduce two functions: rproc_self_recovery,
rproc_assisted_recovery for the two cases. Assisted recovery is as
before, let main processor to help recovery, while self recovery is
recover itself withou help. To self recovery, we only do detach and
attach.
