This statement is rather confusing as there's still quite a bit of direct wkup_m3 usage, including the guts of the protocal for message passing. I thought you had agreed based on earilier reviews to split out the wkup_m3 into it's on little driver with a clear/clean API which could be called from here? To me, it's not terribly clear how you made the split between this PM core code an the remoteproc code. In the changelog for the remoteproc patch, it states it's to "load the firmware for and boot the wkup_m3". But, while parts of the IPC are here in pm33xx.c, parts of the IPC are also inside the remoteproc driver, so I'm quite curious if that's OK with the remoteproc maintainers. Either way, please make it clearer how and why you made the split, and please isolate the wkup_m3 IPC/protocol from this code. Think of people wanting to rework/extend the wkup_m3 firmware. They shouldn't be messing around in here, but rather inside a driver specificaly for the wkup_m3. Also, I'll beat this drum again even though nobody is listening: it's still very fuzzy to me how this approach is going to be used to manage low-power idle? Is low-power idle just being completely ignored for this SoC?
