No worries, I hope to get some feedbacks and to have discussion on the
topic from some other people as well 
FYI, as a similar Pull request exists on OpenAMP github, I requsted in the
OpenAMP PR to centralize all the discussions around the design choice in this
thread. The aim is that we have a single discussion thread to find a consensus
on the way of implementing such service on virtio backend.

Creating a specific rpmsg service is one approach, some other can exist...

Regards,
Arnaud
