Case 1: If M4 is owned by Linux, here directly return 0.
Case 2: If M4 is not owned by Linux, the following code after this line will set
state as RPROC_DETACHED.

Patch 3/6(this patch) is only to support case 2.
Patch 4/6 is to support case 1.

No. The two functions only needed when M4 is in a separate hardware partition.

The scu irq is only needed when M4 is out of linux control and need some
notification such as M4 is reset by SCU(System Control Unit). That linux got
notification that M4 is reset by SCU.

If the upper explanation eliminate your concern, "a problem in patch 4/6" should
not be a problem.

When M4 is owned by Linux, Linux need handle the power domain. If M4 is not owned
by Linux, SCU firmware will handle the power domain, and Linux has no permission to
touch that.
