This series splits the virtio rpmsg bus driver into a rpmsg bus and a virtio backend/wireformat. As we discussed the Qualcomm SMD implementation a couple of years back people suggested that I should make it "a rpmsg thingie". With the introduction of the Qualcomm 8996 platform, we must support a variant of the communication mechanism that share many of the characteristics of SMD, but are different enough that it can't be done in a single implementation. As such there is enough benefit to do the necessary work and being able to make SMD a "rpmsg thingie". On-top of this series I have patches to switch the current smd clients over to rpmsg (and by that drop the existing SMD implementation). All this allows me to implement the new backend and reuse all existing SMD drivers with the new mechanism.
