From: Abdellatif El Khlifi <abdellatif.elkhlifi@arm.com>

add support for the remoteproc control feature for the external system

With this feature we can switch on/off the external system on demand:

echo stop > /sys/class/remoteproc/remoteproc0/state
echo start > /sys/class/remoteproc/remoteproc0/state

During Linux boot the remoteproc subsystem automatically start
the external system. The user can use the commands above to
stop then start the remote core.

+Subject: [PATCH 1/6] remoteproc: Add Arm remoteproc driver
+
+introduce remoteproc support for Arm remote processors
+
+The supported remote processors are those that come with a reset
+control register and a reset status register. The driver allows to
+switch on or off the remote processor.
+
+The current use case is Corstone-1000 External System (Cortex-M3).
+
+The driver can be extended to support other remote processors
+controlled with a reset control and a reset status registers.
+
+The driver also supports control of multiple remote processors at the
+same time.

++description: |
++  Some Arm heterogeneous System-On-Chips feature remote processors that can
++  be controlled with a reset control register and a reset status register to
++  start or stop the processor.
++
++  This document defines the bindings for these remote processors.
++
++properties:
++  compatible:
++    enum:
++      - arm,corstone1000-extsys
++
++  reg:
++    minItems: 2
++    maxItems: 2
++    description: |
++      Address and size in bytes of the reset control register
++      and the reset status register.
++      Expects the registers to be in the order as above.
++      Should contain an entry for each value in 'reg-names'.
++
++  reg-names:
++    description: |
++      Required names for each of the reset registers defined in
++      the 'reg' property. Expects the names from the following
++      list, in the specified order, each representing the corresponding
++      reset register.
++    items:
++      - const: reset-control
++      - const: reset-status
++
++  firmware-name:
++    description: |
++      Default name of the firmware to load to the remote processor.
++
++required:
++  - compatible
++  - reg
++  - reg-names
++  - firmware-name
