Why not simply call it rpmsg-char?

This is already done in rpmsg_create_ept() when rpmsg_eptdev_open() is called.

Not sure why we need a callback associated to this driver when
rpmsg_eptdev_open() already creates and rpmsg_endpoint.  To me the only thing
having a callback provides is the association between the rpmsg_device and the
rpmsg_endpoint[1] that happens in rpmsg_dev_probe().  The QC folks already do
this association in their platform code[2].  Since this is not done in
__rpmsg_create_ept() a check for rpdev->ept == NULL could be done in
rpmsg_eptdev_open() and do the assignment there.
