For Qualcomm SoCs runnning with Qualcomm EL2 hypervisor(QHEE), IOMMU

unmapped once it is tear down and apart from this, SHM bridge also need
to set up to enable memory protection on both remoteproc meta data
memory as well as for the carveout region.

Enable the support required to run Qualcomm remoteprocs on non-QHEE
hypervisors.

Why don't you get this table from the firmware like presumably
QHEE does ?

Well, AFAIK, QHEE(EL2) has this information statically present
and does not get it from anywhere., but will confirm this
twice..

Double confirmed, device memory region required by remoteproc is
statically present with QHEE.

Right, in this case why those tables can't be embedded in the elf
.resource_table like it's done with qcom_q6v5_adsp.c by calling
rproc_elf_load_rsc_table() and let the remoteproc framework load the
resource table and setup the devmem ssmu_map ?

Mainly for two reasons -

firmware images on platforms where we like to bring additional no-qhee
support do not have resource table.

QCOM PAS implementation for secure remoteproc supports single TZ call
of auth_and_rest that authenticates and brings remoteproc out of
reset. And we don't have provision to authenticate resource table
before it is used for devmem/iommu setup.

Why not authenticate a separate binary containing the resource table ?

Adding the resources to DT is a no go since it's clearly related to what
the firmare will be using at runtime, so either it should go in a
.resource_table section or can be moved in a signed .mbn that can
be authenticated by TZ.

Remoteproc doesn't dictate how to load the resource table, there's helpers
to load it from an elf, but it can be loaded by other means.
