There is a problem with using memory-region. If I add `main_r5fss0_core0_memory_region_shm` to memory region, to get this phandle from driver I would have to use of_parse_phandle(np, "memory-region", 2) Where 2 is the index for this region. But the problem is how would the driver know this index. This index can vary for different vendors and their rproc device. If some other vendor tries to use this driver but their memory-region has 3 existing entries. so this this entry will be the 4th one. But the driver code won't work for this. We need to have a way to know which index to look for in existing memory-region which can defer from vendor to vendor. So to avoid this, I thought of using a new memory region. Which will have only 1 entry specifically for this case, and the driver can always of_parse_phandle(np, "rpmsg-eth-region", 0) to get the memory region.
