Extend the Texas Instruments K3 R5F remoteproc device tree bindings to
include a 'rpmsg-eth' subnode.

This extension allows the RPMsg Ethernet to be defined as a subnode of
K3 R5F remoteproc nodes, enabling the configuration of shared memory-based
Ethernet communication between the host and remote processors.

No, not a separate device. Please read slides from my DT for beginners

I had synced with Andrew and we came to the conclusion that including
rpmsg-eth this way will follow the DT guidelines and should be okay.

I have another approach to handle this.

Instead of a new binding and node. I can just add a new phandle to the
rproc binding. Phandle name `shared-mem-region` or `rpmsg-eth-region`

Below is the device tree and dt binding diff for the same.

In this approach I am creating a new phandle to a memory region that
will be used by my device.

Can you please let me know if this approach looks okay to you? Or it you
have any other suggestion on how to handle this?

talk from OSSE25. This is EXACTLY the case I covered there - what not to
do.

Sure I will have a look at that.
