I see your point, but since mailbox hwmod patches from Omar are still
under review I didn't find any other option than to enable this
This is critical functionality that I want to include in and not wait
till the hwmod patches are accepted.
Please let me know if there is any other way of approaching this problem ?

Thank you,
