[PATCH v3 4/6] rpmsg: char: Add possibility to create and reuse default endpoint

[Arnaud Pouliquen]

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 use_default_ept field in rpmsg_eptdev structure. This boolean
determines the behavior on rpmsg_eptdev_open and rpmsg_eptdev_release call.

- If use_default_ept == false:
  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 use_default_ept == true:
  create a endpoint only on first rpmsg_eptdev_open call (if no default
  endpoint already exists) and associate it to the default endpoint.
  The endpoint is released when the rpmsg device is removed.

Update from V2

This patch is a merge of two patches proposed in V2
 rpmsg: char: Introduce __rpmsg_chrdev_create_eptdev function
 rpmsg: char: No dynamic endpoint management for the default one

With the introduction of the use_default_ept to determine the behaviour
on  rpmsg_eptdev_open/release.
