This patch updates the rproc_ops struct to include an optional
release_fw function.

The release_fw ops is responsible for releasing the remote processor
firmware image. The ops is called in the following cases:

 - An error occurs in rproc_start() between the loading of the segments and
      the start of the remote processor.
 - after stopping the remote processor.

I suggest the following:

1) Create two new functions, i.e rproc_load_fw() and rproc_release_fw().  The
only thing those would do is call rproc->ops->load_fw() and
rproc->ops->release_fw(), if they are present.  When a TEE interface is
available, ->load_fw() and ->release_fw() become rproc_tee_load_fw() and
rproc_tee_release_fw().

2) Call rproc_load_fw() in rproc_boot(), just before rproc_fw_boot().  If the
call to rproc_fw_boot() fails, call rproc_release_fw().

3) The same logic applies to rproc_boot_recovery(), i.e call rproc_load_fw()
before rproc_start() and call rproc_release_fw() if rproc_start() fails.

4) Take rproc_tee_load_fw() out of rproc_tee_parse_fw().  It will now be called
in rproc_load_fw().

5) As stated above function rproc_release_fw() now calls rproc_tee_release_fw().
The former is already called in rproc_shutdown() so we are good in that front.

With the above the cached_table management within the core remains the same and
we can get rid of patch 3.7.

Thanks,
Mathieu
