[RFC LINUX PATCH 07/19] remoteproc: Add firmware checksum resource entry
From: Wendy Liang
Date: Fri Mar 24 2017 - 15:30:47 EST
From: Wendy Liang <wendy.liang@xxxxxxxxxx>
Add a firmware checksum resource entry type to store the checksum
of the firmware in the resource table.
In the remoteproc driver firmware booting process, it can check
if the remote already runs the expected firmware so that it can
decide if it needs to restart the remote if the remote already
runs.
