Thanks for the comments.
I still have one question, if there are two instances independently to 'start'
'stop' remoteproc, for example:

Instance1: echo start > /sys/class/remoteproc/remoteproc0/state
Instance2: echo start > /sys/class/remoteproc/remoteproc0/state

...

Instance2: echo stop > /sys/class/remoteproc/remoteproc0/state
...
Instance1: echo stop > /sys/class/remoteproc/remoteproc0/state

When instance2 'stop' the remoteproc, then instance1 will be impacted for
It still needs the service from remoteproc.

That's why I just removed of the checking state, didn't move them to
rproc_boot()/rproc_shutdown()/rproc_detach(). And in order to utilize
the reference counter (rproc->power) to handle the multi-instance case.
