[PATCH v3 2/4] rpmsg: char: Introduce __rpmsg_chrdev_create_eptdev function

[Arnaud Pouliquen <arnaud.pouliquen@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Introduce the __rpmsg_chrdev_create_eptdev internal function that returns
the rpmsg_eptdev context structure.

This patch prepares the introduction of a rpmsg channel device for the
char device. The rpmsg device will need a reference to the context.
