FYI, I've started some dev, trying to adapt the implementation to
the virtio backend to move forward with this topic.

It is only a POC for time being based on a new ROPMsg service for the
flow control.

Linux code is available here:
https://github.com/arnopo/linux/commits/signalling

openamp library associated code is available here:
https://github.com/arnopo/open-amp/commits/flow_ctrl

I hope to find some time next month to continue my dev and send patches
to the mailing list. 

Regards,
Arnaud
