This patch series introduces initial support for the C906L remote
processor in the Sophgo CV1800B SoC. The CV1800B SoC integrates multiple
cores, including a main application core running Linux, a C906L core
typically running RTOS, and an 8051 MCU.

The C906L is an asymmetric processor designed to typically run RTOS.
This patch adds the basic infrastructure to support remoteproc
management of the C906L processor, including firmware loading and basic
control (start/stop) from the main Linux core. Mailbox-related
functionality will be added in a separate patch, after Zephyr mainline
support for the C906L is ready [1].

A branch for testing is available at [2].

The C906L remoteproc relies on the reset controller [1] to function
correctly [2].
