[PATCH 2/2] remoteproc: core: Register the character device interface

[Rishabh Bhatnagar <rishabhb@codeaurora.org>]

Add the character device during rproc_add. This would create
a character device node at /dev/subsys_<rproc_name>. Userspace
applications can interact with the remote processor using this
interface rather than using sysfs node. To distinguish between
different remote processor nodes the device name has been changed
to include the rproc name appended to "rproc_" string.
