This function is used in rpmsg_ctrl to remove eptdev devices.
As device_for_each_child request a specific function prototype I do not only
export but change function prototype.

I can squash all in one function but that means that the "data" parameter is
just always unused.

Here I need to break dependency with rpmsg_ctrldev that will move to the
rpmsg_ctrl.c. rpmsg_eptdev_create doesn't need it but just parent devices to be
attached to.

I will add more explicit information about this, in the commit message.

Thanks,
Arnaud
