Good news: we might not need this after all.

I need the remoteproc devices to exists at ->reserve() time, so I can
assign them a private CMA pool, which means I can't wait for
omap_device_build_ss() and must create the devices beforehand.

... which makes Benoit's alloc/delete methods perfect for me.

So please hold this one off for now. I'd just need a s/static// patch
that will allow me to use Benoit's methods outside of omap_device.c,
but I'll wait for things to settle down a bit before sending it, to
minimize this kind of churn.

Thanks and sorry for the noise,
Ohad.
