Suman Anna ea47c6887b remoteproc: k3-r5: Add loading support for on-chip SRAM regions
The K3 SoCs has various internal on-chip SRAM memories like the SRAM
within the MCU domain or the shared MSMC RAM within NavSS that can be
used for multiple purposes. One such purpose is to have the R5F cores
use a portion of such on-chip SRAM for fast-access data or to directly
execute code.

Add support to the K3 R5 remoteproc driver to parse and support
loading into such memories. The SRAM regions need to be mapped as
normal non-cacheable memory to avoid kernel crashes when the remoteproc
loader code uses the Arm64 memset library function (the "DC ZVA"
instruction throws a alignment fault on device type memory).

These SRAM regions are completely optional as not all firmware images
require these memories, and any such memory has to be reserved as such
in the DTS files.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
