e40573a43d docs: put atomic*.txt and memory-barriers.txt into the core-api book
These files describe part of the core API, but have never been converted to
RST due to ... let's say local oppposition.  So, create a set of
special-purpose wrappers to ..include these files into a separate page so
that they can be a part of the htmldocs build.  Then link them into the
core-api manual and remove them from the "staging" dumping ground.

7e6b9db27d jump_label: make initial NOP patching the special case
Instead of defaulting to patching NOP opcodes at init time, and leaving
it to the architectures to override this if this is not needed, switch
to a model where doing nothing is the default. This is the common case
by far, as only MIPS requires NOP patching at init time. On all other
architectures, the correct encodings are emitted by the compiler and so
no initial patching is needed.

c13b780c45 remoteproc: Change rproc_shutdown() to return a status
The rproc_shutdown() function is currently not returning any
error code, and any failures within rproc_stop() are not passed
back to the users. Change the signature to return a success value
back to the callers.

The remoteproc sysfs and cdev interfaces are also updated to
return back this status to userspace.

617e7481d7 remoteproc updates for v5.9
This introduces a new "detached" state for remote processors that are
 deemed to be running at the time Linux boots and the infrastructure for
 "attaching" to these. It then introduces the support for performing this
 operation for the STM32 platform.
 
 The coredump functionality is moved out from the core file and gains
 support for an optional mode where the recovery phase awaits the
 notification from devcoredump that the dump should be released. This
 allows userspace to grab the coredump in scenarios where vmalloc space
 is too low for creating a complete copy of the coredump before handing
 this to devcoredump.
 
 A new character device based interface is introduced to allow tying the
 stoppage of a remote processor to the termination of a user space
 process. This is useful in situations when such process provides crucial
 resources/operations for the firmware running on the remote processor.
 
 The Texas Instrument K3 driver gains support for the C66x and C71x DSPs.
 
 Qualcomm remoteprocs gains support for stashing relocation information
 in IMEM, to aid post mortem debugging and the crash notification
 mechanism is generalized to be reusable in cases where loosely coupled
 drivers needs to know about the status of a remote processor. One such
 example is the IPA hardware block, which is jointly owned with the
 modem and migrated to this improved interface.
 
 It also introduces a number of bug fixes and debug improvements for the
 Qualcomm modem remoteproc driver.
 
 And it cleans up the inconsistent interface for remoteproc drivers to
 implement power management.
