ipq807x: 6.1: fix remoteproc booting

In 6.1 booting the remoteprocessor that is actually running the WLAN
unfortunatelly broke, so after a long time bisecting we managed to track it
down to commit ("soc: qcom: mdt_loader: Always invoke PAS mem_setup").

Luckily adding back the relocation check and not making an SCM call
qcom_scm_pas_mem_setup() restored the functionality.

Ansuel has sent the patch upstream.

+Subject: [PATCH] soc: qcom: mdt_loader: Fix unconditional call to
+ scm_pas_mem_setup
+
+Commit ebeb20a9cd3f ("soc: qcom: mdt_loader: Always invoke PAS
+mem_setup") dropped the relocate check and made pas_mem_setup run
+unconditionally. The code was later moved with commit f4e526ff7e38
+("soc: qcom: mdt_loader: Extract PAS operations") to
+qcom_mdt_pas_init() effectively losing track of what was actually
+done.
+
+The assumption that PAS mem_setup can be done anytime was effectively
+wrong, with no good reason and this caused regression on some SoC
+that use remoteproc to bringup ath11k. One example is IPQ8074 SoC that
+effectively broke resulting in remoteproc silently die and ath11k not
+working.
+
+On this SoC FW relocate is not enabled and PAS mem_setup was correctly
+skipped in previous kernel version resulting in correct bringup and
+function of remoteproc and ath11k.
+
+To fix the regression, reintroduce the relocate check in
+qcom_mdt_pas_init() and correctly skip PAS mem_setup where relocate is
+not enabled.
