This patch updates the rproc_ops struct to include an optional release_fw function.
The release_fw ops is responsible for releasing the remote processor firmware image. The ops is called in the following cases:
- An error occurs in rproc_start() between the loading of the segments and the start of the remote processor.
- after stopping the remote processor.

Updates from version V11:
- fix typo in @release_fw comment

I suggest the following:
- Create two new functions, i.e rproc_load_fw() and rproc_release_fw(). The
only thing those would do is call rproc->ops->load_fw() and rproc->ops->release_fw(), if they are present. When a TEE interface is available, ->load_fw() and ->release_fw() become rproc_tee_load_fw() and rproc_tee_release_fw().
- Call rproc_load_fw() in rproc_boot(), just before rproc_fw_boot(). If the
call to rproc_fw_boot() fails, call rproc_release_fw().
- The same logic applies to rproc_boot_recovery(), i.e call rproc_load_fw()
before rproc_start() and call rproc_release_fw() if rproc_start() fails.
- Take rproc_tee_load_fw() out of rproc_tee_parse_fw(). It will now be called
in rproc_load_fw().
- As stated above function rproc_release_fw() now calls rproc_tee_release_fw().
The former is already called in rproc_shutdown() so we are good in that front.
With the above the cached_table management within the core remains the same and we can get rid of patch 3.7.
Thanks for your suggestion! I will try this in next revision.
Regards, Arnaud
Thanks, Mathieu
