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

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

Arnaud - please look into this one.

Good catch!
I tried to reproduce it but without success. Do you set a specific config?

Concerning the patch:

Could you add a comment, to help to understand the condition?
something like "The default endpoint is released by the rpmsg core"

With that Reviewed-by: Arnaud Pouliquen <arnaud.pouliquen@foss.st.com>

Thanks,
Arnaud
