[PATCHv2 2/3] remoteproc: recover a remoteproc when it has crashed

This patch is introducing rproc_trigger_recover function which is in
charge of recovering the rproc. One way to recover the rproc after a crash
is resetting all its virtio devices. Doing that, all rpmsg drivers are
restored along with the rpmsg devices and that also causes the reset of
the remoteproc making the rpmsg communication with the remoteproc
functional again. So far, rproc_trigger_recover function is only resetting
all virtio devices, if in the future other rproc features are introduced
and need to be reset too, rproc_trigger_recover function should take care
of that.
