remoteproc: create a 'recovery' debugfs entry

Add a 'recovery' debugfs entry to dynamically disable/enable recovery
at runtime. This is useful when one is trying to debug an rproc crash;
without it, a recovery will immediately take place, making it harder
to debug the crash.

Contributions from Subramaniam Chanderashekarapuram.

Examples:

- disabling recovery:
$ echo disabled > <debugfs>/remoteproc/remoteproc0/recovery

- in case you want to recover a crash, but keep recovery disabled
  (useful in debugging sessions when you expect additional crashes
   you want to debug):
$ echo recover > <debugfs>/remoteproc/remoteproc0/recovery

- enabling recovery:
$ echo enabled > <debugfs>/remoteproc/remoteproc0/recovery

+ * By writing to the 'recovery' debugfs entry, we control the behavior of the
+ * recovery mechanism dynamically. The default value of this entry is "enabled".
+ *
+ * The 'recovery' debugfs entry supports these commands:
+ *
+ * enabled:	When enabled, the remote processor will be automatically
+ *		recovered whenever it crashes. Moreover, if the remote
+ *		processor crashes while recovery is disabled, it will
+ *		be automatically recovered too as soon as recovery is enabled.
+ *
+ * disabled:	When disabled, a remote processor will remain in a crashed
+ *		state if it crashes. This is useful for debugging purposes;
+ *		without it, debugging a crash is substantially harder.
+ *
+ * recover:	This function will trigger an immediate recovery if the
+ *		remote processor is in a crashed state, without changing
+ *		or checking the recovery state (enabled/disabled).
+ *		This is useful during debugging sessions, when one expects
+ *		additional crashes to happen after enabling recovery. In this
+ *		case, enabling recovery will make it hard to debug subsequent
+ *		crashes, so it's recommended to keep recovery disabled, and
+ *		instead use the "recover" command as needed.
