This series consist of three sets of patches: The first set introduces the concept of subdevices - entities that are probed and removed following the running state of a remoteproc. This is then used by the Qualcomm WCNSS PIL to control the life cycle of the associated SMD channels and devices. The second set starts by decoupling vring allocation from the virtio device, both to make the vring allocation follow the style of carveout allocations and to allow the virtio devices to be implemented as subdevices. With the second set in place the third set cleans up the vdev resource handling and lastly cleans up the table_ptr vs cached_table handling.
