[Sound-open-firmware] [PATCH v3 0/5] Add a vhost RPMsg API

[Guennadi Liakhovetski]

Update: I looked through VirtIO 1.0 and 1.1 specs, data format their, 
including byte order, is defined on a per-device type basis. RPMsg is 
indeed included in the spec as device type 7, but that's the only 
mention of it in both versions. It seems RPMsg over VirtIO isn't 
standardised yet. Also it looks like newer interface definitions 
specify using "guest native endianness" for Virtual Queue data. So 
I think the same should be done for RPMsg instead of enforcing LE?

Thanks
Guennadi
