Both Suman and I are meddling in function rproc_alloc() for our
respective work [1][2].  I will add this patch to a set that refactors
rproc_alloc() as soon as v5.7-rc1 comes out.  That way we can all base
our work on the same foundation and Bjorn doesn't have to fix 3
different merge conflicts.

Thanks,
Mathieu
