Afaict rpmsg_create_channel() first looks for any existing devices with
the same src, dst and name and if such device is found we fail early and
this logic is found before all those changes as well.

As the code didn't look to support multiple services with the same name
I have not considered this scenario. Can you describe your use case for
this?

But in rpmsg_id_match() we match rpdev->id.name against the id_table of
the registered drivers to find out which driver to probe, please help me
understand what I'm missing here.
