Thanks Sibi,

This looks clean and straight forward, but I think the logic should be
moved into the qcom_q6v5_mss driver itself - as we now only care about
the QMI service being present, not the rmtfs_memory driver.

There's nothing left of my original patch, so please credit yourself as
author of v3.

The 14 here deserves a define and the whole thing would benefit from a
comment describing the remoteproc's dependency on the RMTFS service
being present.

Looking forward to v3!
