Current implementation create/destroy a new endpoint on each rpmsg_eptdev_open/rpmsg_eptdev_release calls. For a rpmsg device created by the NS announcement a default endpoint is created. In this case we have to reuse the default rpmsg device endpoint associated to the channel instead of creating a new one. This patch prepares the introduction of a rpmsg channel device for the char device. The rpmsg channel device will require a default endpoint to communicate to the remote processor. Add the default_ept field in rpmsg_eptdev structure.This pointer determines the behavior on rpmsg_eptdev_open and rpmsg_eptdev_release call. - If default_ept == NULL: Use the legacy behavior by creating a new endpoint each time rpmsg_eptdev_open is called and release it when rpmsg_eptdev_release is called on /dev/rpmsgX device open/close. - If default_ept is set: use the rpmsg device default endpoint for the communication. Add protection in rpmsg_eptdev_ioctl to prevent to destroy a default endpoint.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
