Yeah, the other qcom pieces do not belong to the remoteproc core.

So looking at this again, this only captures the segments dictated by
your ELF program headers. So, will this be capturing the data contents
like stack and heap.

OK, but this fundamentally requires that there's some userspace utility
that needs to trigger the continuation of recovery. Granted that this
only happens CONFIG_DEV_COREDUMP is enabled, but that is a global build
flag and when enabled does it for all the platforms as well. 5 mins is a
long time if there's no utility, and if this path is enabled by default
in a common kernel, it definitely is not a desirable default behavior.
What's the default behavior on individual coredumps when above is
enabled. Also, how does the utility get to know that a remoteproc has
crashed?

well, add_header is still narrow or confusing name for this. Adding the
header is just one part of the coredump.
