To decrement the refcount of @rproc, use rproc_put() (but _only_ if

Remove rproc_get_by_name() and rproc_put(), and the associated remoteproc infrastructure that supports it (i.e. klist and friends), because: 1. No one uses them 2. Using them is highly discouraged, and any potential user will be deeply scrutinized and encouraged to move. If a user, that absolutely can't live with the direct boot/shutdown model, does show up one day, then bringing this functionality back is going to be trivial. At this point though, keeping this functionality around is way too much of a maintenance burden.
