That means that this file is correlated with the virtio, right?
there is a risk that It cannot be used by some platforms which not use virtio...

This header is related to the virtio implementation, and represent the header of
the RPMsgs in virtio implementation not only the ns annoucement.

What about splitting it in 2 files?
1) rpmsg_ns.h 
  definitions related to the ns announcement

2) rpmsg_virtio.h
- definitions related to the RPMsg virtio implementation
- This file could include the rpmsg_ns.h 

Thanks,
Arnaud
