Similar to how a driver for e.g. an I2C device doesn't live in
drivers/i2c, this doesn't belong in drivers/rpmsg. Probably rather
directly in the DRM driver.

The rpmsg API is exposed outside drivers/rpmsg, so as I said above, just
implement this directly in your driver, no need to lug around a dummy
wrapper for things like this.

I believe that you can replace apu_get_rproc() with:

rproc = rproc_get_by_child(&rpdev->dev);

Would it be better or you if we have a device_node, so that you could
specify the iommus property for this compute device?

I'm asking because I've seen cases where multi-purpose remoteproc
firmware operate using multiple different iommu streams...

This label looks misplaced, and sure enough, if apu_init_iovad() fails
you're not apu_drm_unregister_core().

But on that note, don't you want to apu_init_iovad() before you
apu_drm_register_core()?

The reason for using devm_kzalloc() is that once you return
unsuccessfully from probe, or from remove the memory is freed.

So devm_kfree() should go in both cases.

No need to explicitly free devm resources.
