Add support to run remote user process as privileged on remote
subsystem. The privileged user process can be given prioritized
access to remote processor resources. This is achieved in kernel
based on the group ID of the process. The kernel will have a
pre-defined fastrpc group ID and if the process's group ID matches
with it, then the process is treated as a privileged process. This
information is sent to the remote processor during PD initialization
and the PD is treated as a privileged PD.

Why is this a RESEND?

I missed sending the patches to some necessary people and lists. Hence, 
resent the patch series.

Please always say so when doing a resend as I think the documentation
asks you to, right?

This was the first time for me to resend a patch and in documentation I 
just saw "RESEND" needs to be added to the subject. Apologies for 
missing this. I'm still learning and going forwards, for re-sending also 
I'll follow the etiquette followed when resubmitting a patch with 
changes. Thanks for the suggestion! :)
