Ah, good catch. If I send out a v3 I will fold the following into this
patch:

diff --git a/drivers/rpmsg/rpmsg_core.c b/drivers/rpmsg/rpmsg_core.c

 		rpdrv->remove(rpdev);

Maybe .announce_destroy() should then be changed to return void, too?
Something like:

though it's not obvious for me that the last hunk is sensible. (OTOH the
return code is ignored anyhow as rpmsg_dev_remove() is the only caller.

Best regards and thanks
Uwe
