[PATCH 1/5] remoteproc: core: Task sync during rproc_fw_boot()

From: Lee Jones
Date: Thu May 05 2016 - 09:32:54 EST


By default, rproc_fw_boot() needs to wait for rproc to be configured,
but a race may occur when using rpmsg/virtio. In this case, it can
be called locally in a safe manor.

This patch represents two usecases:

- External call (via exported rproc_boot()), which waits
- Internal call can use 'nowait' version of rproc_boot()
