[RFC PATCH] remoteproc: k3-r5: Fix check performed in k3_r5_rproc_{mbox_callback/kick}

[Siddharth Vadapalli <s-vadapalli@ti.com>]

Commit f3f11cfe8907 ("remoteproc: k3-r5: Acquire mailbox handle during
probe routine") introduced a check in the "k3_r5_rproc_mbox_callback()" and
"k3_r5_rproc_kick()" callbacks, causing them to exit if the remote core's
state is "RPROC_DETACHED". However, the "__rproc_attach()" function that is
responsible for attaching to a remote core, updates the state of the remote
core to "RPROC_ATTACHED" only after invoking "rproc_start_subdevices()".

The "rproc_start_subdevices()" function triggers the probe of the Virtio
RPMsg devices associated with the remote core, which require that the
"k3_r5_rproc_kick()" and "k3_r5_rproc_mbox_callback()" callbacks are
functional. Hence, drop the check in the callbacks.

Hello,

Since the commit being fixed is not yet a part of Mainline Linux, this
patch is based on linux-next tagged next-20240913.

An alternative to this patch will be a change to the "__rproc_attach()"
function in the "remoteproc_core.c" driver with
rproc->state = RPROC_ATTACHED;
being set after "rproc_attach_device()" is invoked, but __before__
invoking "rproc_start_subdevices()". Since this change will be performed
in the common Remoteproc Core, it appeared to me that fixing it in the
TI remoteproc driver is the correct approach.

The equivalent of this patch for ti_k3_dsp_remoteproc.c might also be
required, which I shall post if the current patch is acceptable.

Kindly review and share your feedback on this patch.

Regards,
Siddharth.
