Hello Shenwei,

This versiob seems much more generic, thanks!

Sometime the prefix is gpio_rpmsg, sometime rpmsg_gpio or just gpio,
could you use "rpmsg_gpio" prefix in the whole driver?

Does this fields above are mandatory, seems that it is just some 
constant values that are useless.

> +	u8 version;	/* Vendor-specific version number */

Why it is vendor specific? the version should represent the rpmsg-tty 
protocol version.

What is the purpose of this reserved field?

Any reason to use __packed and alignement here?
This structure will be copied in a vring buffer right?

strange condition you return an error if err == 0, for redability use 
'ret' variable or simply:

		if(!wait_for_completion_timeout(&info->cmd_complete,
				  msecs_to_jiffies(RPMSG_TIMEOUT)) {
			dev_err(&info->rpdev->dev, "rpmsg_send timeout!\n");
			return -ETIMEDOUT;

What about simply returning rproc->name?

Is a topology where they is no rproc->dev node but a parent node exist?

What happen if the remoteprocessor answer after the completion timeout?
Could it result in desynchronization between the request and the answer?

Having a cmd_counter in gpio_rpmsg_head could help to identify current 
request and answer

the use of reinit_completion could be also needed

Could you print the msg->header.type value to help for debug?

return ret
or indicate why the return of rpmsg_gpiochip_register is not taken into 
account
