From: Peng Fan <peng.fan@xxxxxxx> If remote processor has already been in RUNNING or ATTACHED state, report it. Not just increment the power counter and return success. Without this patch, if m7 is in RUNNING state, and start it again, nothing output to console. If wanna to stop the m7, we need write twice 'stop'. This patch is to improve that the 2nd start would show some useful info.
