Thanks for catching my mistake, Loic! The expected outcome would be that
the slim_rproc_ops does point the "load" to the now exported ELF loader
symbol and by that won't get a find_rsc_table entry from the default
set..

Right, in the end the st_slim driver should have been defined just as
the Qualcomm one - but referencing rproc_elf_load_segments().

This is retaining the previous behaviour of failing to load/start a
remoteproc if no resource table is found, when the driver expects one.
The new scheme would allow you to specify a custom load_rsc_table that
calls rproc_elf_load_rsc_table() and ignores the return value to support
your use case.

This would be a change in behavior and I can see how this could be
annoying to people (by not catching their mistakes during development).

If you think this is the preferred implementation then please submit a
separate patch for this so we can get some feedback from other users.
