Ah, my bad. Thanks for the catch.

Good point. I was not sure if it makes sense to add on each message but
I wasn't sure if we can defer this to the client. But based on what you
say, it should be OK do defer it to the client.

So the next question I have is: should we populate properties in the
ffa_device so that client can use the same. I started with that but then
didn't want to expose the info to the client.

I can move the properties to the struct ffa_device and keep these macro
arm_ffa.h for clients to use if they wish. Does that make sense ?

Thanks for taking look at the patches. I will skip responding on other
2 patches as I have asked all my questions as part of this patch and they
apply to those 2 as well.
