This allows the remote firmware to print log messages in the kernel log,
not the syslog (although your system might inject the kernel log into
the syslog as well)

drivers/rpmsg is for rpmsg bus and transport drivers. Client drivers
should live elsewhere.

But perhaps, rather than having a driver for this, you could simply use
rpmsg_char and a userspace tool; if you want to get the remote processor
logs into syslog, instead of the kernel log?

The rpmsg_device_id below should cause the device to probe on the
presence of a "syslog" channel announcement, so why are you creating a
new endpoint with the same here?

Why aren't you just specifying the callback of the driver?

I would expect that building this as a module gives you complaints about
lacking MODULE_LICENSE().
