There has to be a capital letter at the start of the title:
rpmsg: char: No dynamic endpoint management for the default one
Please fix for all the patches.

The above is very difficult to understand. I am not sure about introducing
RPMSG_CREATE_DEV_IOCTL in this patchset. More on that in an upcoming comment.

Here too it is very difficult to understand because the comment
doesn't not describe what the code does. The code creates an enpoint if it
has not been created, which means /dev/rpmsgX was created from the ioctl.
