Subject: [PATCH v2] rpmsg: char: Avoid double destroy of default endpoint

The rpmsg_dev_remove() in rpmsg_core is the place for releasing
this default endpoint.

So need to avoid destroying the default endpoint in
rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_destroy(), this should be the same as
rpmsg_eptdev_release(). Otherwise there will be double destroy
issue that ept->refcount report warning:

refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.

Call trace:
 refcount_warn_saturate+0xf8/0x150
 virtio_rpmsg_destroy_ept+0xd4/0xec
 rpmsg_dev_remove+0x60/0x70

The issue can be reproduced by stopping remoteproc before
closing the /dev/rpmsgX.

Fixes: bea9b79c2d10 ("rpmsg: char: Add possibility to use default endpoint of the rpmsg device")
