LGTM, just a minor remark concerning the name. As this memory region could be used for
different allocations (e.g rpmsg device allocation, vrings...) i would suggest you to rename
it with a more generic name such as shared_mem_id or default_shmem_id.
Anyway, first let's wait for further feedback on your solution.
Thanks,
Arnaud
