[RESEND PATCH v4] remoteproc: imx_dsp_rproc: add module parameter to ignore ready flag from remote processor

[Iuliana Prodan (OSS)]

From: Iuliana Prodan <iuliana.prodan@nxp.com>

There are cases when we want to test a simple "hello world"
application on the DSP and we don't have IPC between the cores.
Therefore, do not wait for a confirmation from the remote processor
at start.

Added "ignore_dsp_ready" flag while inserting the module to ignore
remote processor reply after start.
By default, this is off - do not ignore reply from rproc.

Changes since v3
- do not instantiate static var to 0, this is done by default
- do not initialize mailbox if not IPC between the core

Changes since v2
- s/ignoreready/ignore_dsp_ready

Changes since v1
- change BIT(31) to BIT(1) for REMOTE_SKIP_WAIT

This patch is on my review list, as indicated in February 8th's patchset review
order email.  That said, I haven't seen Daniel's RB on the mailing list.

It was given on v4 - please, see here :

Hi Iuliana,

First and foremost, you were correct to remind me of this patch - it had slipped
through.  I got mixed up with your other patch[1], which has the same title
preprend and the same revision.  That one is on my list of patches to review and
I should get to it later this week or early next week.

Please see below for comments on this patch.

This patch is about introducing a mode where the mailboxes aren't used... Why
not simply name the parameter "no_mailboxes"?

This isn't needed since priv->rxdb_ch is NULL when mailboxes have not been
initialized.

I suggest to rename imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_init() to imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_alloc(),
introduce a new function called imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_no_alloc() that simply
returns 0 and make imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_init() a function pointer.

See imx_dsp_rproc_probe() for the rest of the solution...

Remove this.

This isn't needed since mbox_free_channel() is able to handle a NULL parameter,
which is the case when imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_init() hasn't been called.

        if (no_mailboxes)
                imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_init = imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_no_alloc;
        else
                imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_init = imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_alloc;

That way we don't introduce a new flag, there is no new conditionals peppered
throughout the code and calls to imx_dsp_rproc_mbox_init() remain unchainged.

Thanks,
Mathieu
