As mentioned in [PATCH v8 09/13] rpmsg: Introduce rpmsg_create_default_ept function
"This helper function allows rpmsg drivers to create a default endpoint
on runtime with an associated private context."
Here the private context is the eptdev structure. I need to create the structure
first, before
the endpoint.
I will add more details in the commit message as you suggest.
An alternative could be to directly set default_ept->priv but as the
rpmsg_create_default_ept
"priv" parameter is forwarded to the rpmsg backend (using create_ept ops).
This could introduces unexpected side effect.

I apparently broke something in my patchset here during a rebase. The previous
irrelevant comment you pointed out to me is also a consequence. My apologies for
this dirty patch...
