[RFC LINUX PATCH 05/19] remoteproc: check if remote is running the fw before reload fw
From: Wendy Liang
Date: Fri Mar 24 2017 - 15:33:07 EST
From: Wendy Liang <wendy.liang@xxxxxxxxxx>
Add a function rproc_is_running_fw() to check if it needs to start the
remote betfore it loads firmware and tries to start the remote.
In some cases, when the master restarts, the remote is already running the
expected firmware.
In this case, we don't need to start the remote when the remoteproc driver
starts.
