This should list each person who dealt with the patch. So the first
would be the author and the last would be the one that posted it on the
list.

If you both authored the patch then you should add Co-developed-by to
denote this.

Please read

payload size can have many meanings and hopefully we'll end up in a
situation where its dynamic. But it could be considered useful to have a
way to query the maximum transmission size in such a setup.

So please rename this rpmsg_get_mtu() or something similar.

And I would prefer ssize_t as return type.

Seems that a rpmsg instance configured to not even have space for the
rpmsg_hdr in each message is rather broken. Shouldn't this be prohibited
elsewhere?
