Indeed, this is a problem for any of the slave processor devices.
mailbox and iommu would be slaves to the remoteproc and the drivers have
a specific sequence of bringing up a processor. The current
hwmod/omap_device code is such that these devices will be left in reset
and the driver code use the omap_device_(de)assert_hardreset API
together with omap_device_enable code to bring up the devices. The
remoteproc driver also needs to assert the resets (there are other
problems associated with using omap_device_idle for remoteproc and
iommu) for bringing up the devices after a suspend sequence. hwspinlock
and mailbox may get away since they are in CORE domain, but definitely
an issue for iommu and remoteproc. I would think that this would also
affect other compute devices like IVAHD, ISS, SGX.
