This function is rather ambiguous. Without the example of stm32, it is not
obvious what the platform driver has to do in this ops. And the update of rproc
in the in the core instead of in platform driver seems to me more reliable.

Here is a suggestion considering that ->cached_table is always NULL:


struct resource_table *rproc_get_loaded_rsc_table(struct rproc *rproc,
                                                  size_t* size)
{

	if (rproc->ops->get_loaded_rsc_table) {
		return rproc->ops->get_loaded_rsc_table(rproc, size);

	*size = 0;
	return NULL;
}

then in rproc_attach:

	table_ptr = rproc_get_loaded_rsc_table(rproc, &tab_size);
	if (PTR_ERR(table_ptr) {
		dev_err(dev, "can't load resource table: %d\n", ret);
		goto disable_iommu;
	}
 	rproc->cached_table = NULL;
 	rproc->table_ptr = table_ptr;
 	rproc->table_sz = table_sz;


Thanks,
Arnaud
