+ * rproc_find_carveout_by_name() - lookup the carveout region by a name
+ * @rproc: handle of a remote processor
+ * @name,..: carveout name to find (standard printf format)
+ *
+ * Platform driver has the capability to register some pre-allacoted carveout
+ * (physically contiguous memory regions) before rproc firmware loading and
+ * associated resource table analysis. These regions may be dedicated memory
+ * regions internal to the coprocessor or specified DDR region with specific
+ * attributes
+ *
+ * This function is a helper function with which we can go over the
+ * allocated carveouts and return associated region characteristics like
+ * coprocessor address, length or processor virtual address.
+ *
+ * Return: a valid pointer on carveout entry on success or NULL on failure.
