When A53 reboot, detach is invoked if I understand correct. You are correct (for this patchset). Since this heuristic is quite stringent we are contemplating different solutions that would allow platforms to decide what they want to do based on the usecase they care about.

Add an new detach() operation in order to support scenarios where the remoteproc core is going away but the remote processor is kept operating. This could be the case when the system is rebooted or when the platform driver is removed.
