rpmsg: char: Fix race between the release of rpmsg_eptdev and cdev

commit 7a534ae89e34e9b51acb5a63dd0f88308178b46a upstream.

struct rpmsg_eptdev contains a struct cdev. The current code frees
the rpmsg_eptdev struct in rpmsg_eptdev_destroy(), but the cdev is
a managed object, therefore its release is not predictable and the
rpmsg_eptdev could be freed before the cdev is entirely released.

The cdev_device_add/del() API was created to address this issue
(see commit '233ed09d7fda ("chardev: add helper function to register
char devs with a struct device")'), use it instead of cdev add/del().

Fixes: c0cdc19 ("rpmsg: Driver for user space endpoint interface")
