[PATCH v4] remoteproc: Fix NULL pointer dereference in rproc_virtio_notify

From: Nikita Shubin
Date: Fri Mar 06 2020 - 02:21:58 EST


Undefined rproc_ops .kick method in remoteproc driver will result in
"Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference" in rproc_virtio_notify,
after firmware loading if:

1) .kick method wasn't defined in driver
2) resource_table exists in firmware and has "Virtio device entry" defined

Let's refuse to register an rproc-induced virtio device if no kick method was
defined for rproc.
