+Description:
+ Every rpmsg device is a communication channel with a remote
+ processor. Channels are identified by a textual name (see
+ /sys/bus/rpmsg/devices/.../name above) and have a local
+ ("source") rpmsg address, and remote ("destination") rpmsg
+ address.
+
+ The listening entity (or client) which communicates with a
+ remote processor is referred as rpmsg driver. The rpmsg device
+ and rpmsg driver are matched based on rpmsg device name and
+ rpmsg driver ID table.
+
+ This sysfs entry allows the rpmsg driver for a rpmsg device
+ to be specified which will override standard OF, ID table
+ and name matching.
