Isn't packed already?

Ditto.

Hmm... To me it sounds somehow fragile.

If your text contains binary data, how can you guarantee that it would be not
in the middle of two \n:s? OTOH, if it text data, why do you need to take all
strings at once? It might be worse from performance prospective (if you know
how and when printk() supplies buffer to the console).

Hmm... shouldn't be memcpy()?

I don't see how it's serialized. Does rpmsg core take care of this?

You can consider to use __maybe_unused annotation to the below function.

Terminator better without comma.
