Please move the log message above the new early return so both paths log 
recovery.

Tested this on i.MX8M Plus using the imx_dsp_rproc driver, which 
supports recovery.
Everything looks good, but on imx_dsp_rproc we use rproc_boot_recovery, 
not rproc_attach_recovery, where most of the changes happened.
