Crash is observed in reboot test case.

Log prints suggested that ept was destroyed just before crash in
rpmsg_eptdev_create().

Below code was executed before crash -

static int rpmsg_eptdev_destroy(struct device *dev, void *data)
{
    struct rpmsg_eptdev *eptdev = dev_to_eptdev(dev);

    mutex_lock(&eptdev->ept_lock);
    if (eptdev->ept) {
        rpmsg_destroy_ept(eptdev->ept);
        eptdev->ept = NULL;
    }
    mutex_unlock(&eptdev->ept_lock);

    /* wake up any blocked readers */
    wake_up_interruptible(&eptdev->readq);

    device_del(&eptdev->dev);
    put_device(&eptdev->dev);

    return 0;
}

one crash was observed in rpmsg_eptdev_create() and other in
rpmsg_eptdev_poll() -

1)

rpmsg_create_ept+0x40/0xa0
rpmsg_eptdev_open+0x88/0x138
chrdev_open+0xc4/0x1c8
do_dentry_open+0x230/0x378

do_filp_open+0x98/0x118
do_sys_openat2+0x90/0x220
do_sys_open+0x64/0x8c

2)

rpmsg_poll+0x5c/0x80
rpmsg_eptdev_poll+0x84/0xa4
do_sys_poll+0x22c/0x5c8

yes, i will correct this in next patch.
