Currently the SSR subdevice notifies the client driver on crash of the
rproc from the recovery workqueue using the BEFORE_SHUTDOWN event.
However the client driver might be interested to know that the device
has crashed immediately to pause any further transactions with the
rproc. This calls for an event to be sent to the driver in the IRQ
context as soon as the rproc crashes.

Add NOTIFY_FATAL event to SSR subdevice to atomically notify rproc has
crashed to the client driver.

Validated the event in IPQ9574 and IPQ5332 by forcing the rproc to crash
and ensuring the registered notifier function receives the notification
in IRQ context.

This was one of valid use case we encounter in android, We have some other way of doing the same thing without core kernel change with
something called early notifiers.

https://git.codelinaro.org/clo/la/kernel/msm-5.15/-/commit/7583d24de337aa1bf7c375a7da706af9b995b9a1#a840754ebb0e24e88adbf48177e1abd0830b72d2

https://git.codelinaro.org/clo/la/kernel/msm-5.15/-/commit/257de41c63a5a51a081cc7887cdaa4a46e4d1744

But good to address this if possible.

Ack the idea of early notifier;
But here, atomic does not guarantees it to be atomic.
