SubjectRe: [RFC PATCH v2 1/1] rpmsg: add syslog driver

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().
