[PATCH v2 1/4] rpmsg: add THIS_MODULE to rpmsg_driver in rpmsg core

From: Andrew F. Davis
Date: Wed May 04 2016 - 18:01:48 EST


Add register_rpmsg_driver helper macro that adds THIS_MODULE to
rpmsg_driver for the registering driver. We rename and modify
the existing register_rpmsg_driver to enable this.
