remoteproc/omap: add a remoteproc driver for OMAP4
Add a remoteproc driver for OMAP4, so we can boot the dual-M3 and and DSP subsystems. Use the omap_device_* API to control the hardware state, and utilize the OMAP mailbox to interrupt the remote processor when a new message is pending (the mailbox payload is used to tell it which virtqueue was the message placed in). Conversely, when an inbound mailbox message arrives, tell the remoteproc core which virtqueue is triggered. Later we will also use the mailbox payload to signal omap-specific events like remote crashes (which will be used to trigger remoteproc recovery) and power management transitions. At that point we will also extend the remoteproc core to support this. Based on (but now quite far from) work done by Fernando Guzman Lugo <fernando.lugo@ti.com> and Hari Kanigeri <h-kanigeri2@ti.com>. Designed with Brian Swetland <swetland@google.com>.

+ Say y here to support OMAP's remote processors (dual M3
+ and DSP on OMAP4) via the remote processor framework.
+
+ Currently only supported on OMAP4.
+
+ Usually you want to say y here, in order to enable multimedia
+ use-cases to run on your platform (multimedia codecs are
+ offloaded to remote DSP processors using this framework).
+
+ It's safe to say n here if you're not interested in multimedia
+ offloading or just want a bare minimum kernel.
