Yeah, pretty useful to have a trace there..

Hi Ohad, We will probably be seeing more of such scenarios for very simplistic devices (like the ones that load into their internal memories), it looks like the framework needs some kind of support for booting such devices, whether auto-boot, or give some kind of sysfs control for userspace. We do have the rproc_boot() and rproc_shutdown() API, but that almost always requires some other entity in the kernel to be able to invoke those API.
