I'm not sure to understand what the above sentence adds to the changelog.  I
suggest either reworking or removing.

Please see if you can use a kernel defined time constant instead of minting your
own.

I don't understand the explanation for @attach_wq - please rework.

Is there really a chance that ipi->r5_core be NULL?

Why use READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE here - what does it give you?

If @rsc->status has been set to 0 in zynqmp_r5_attach() and an IPI is received
before ->kick(), the core may erroneously think the remote processor is
acknowleging the reset.

Again, I would like to understand the motivation behind using WRITE_ONCE()
here...  I just don't see what kind of re-ordering issue you need to guard
against.

Will older FW be able to deal with this properly?

The condition where the driver is removed or the remoteproc shut down needs also
needs to be handled as a break out condition.

Thanks,
