FWIW, I didn't run into any rpmsg device memory leaks even without this
patch with booting and shutting down of remoteproc devices. The
virtio_rpmsg_channel structure inherits the struct rpmsg_device and is
the one that gets allocated, and the release function plugged in
rpmsg_release_device is operating on the rpmsg_device pointer, but both
are actually the same pointer.

Did you run into any memory leaks that required you to have this patch?
