Sorry, to bring this up again, but I'm confused regarding the #mbox-cells
thing. Above it says #mbox-cells is 0. In that case, shouldn't the
'mboxes' property not only be '<&mbox>'?

Moreover, the generic mailbox bindings
(https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mailbox/mailbox.txt)
mandate #mbox-cells to be at least 1.

Does something need to be aligned here?
