Looking at this patch a little more I notice there's no line reading
     MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, sti_mailbox_match);

The three mailbox drivers that currently support OF do have such a line.
So "another way of autoloading" was rather sloppy as now I don't see how
this driver, if build as a module, will get auto-loaded. Maybe there's
an auto-loading mechanism that I'm not aware of here. Or perhaps auto
-loading is not needed.

Similar question for patch 5/6 and the lack of a line reading
    MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, mbox_test_match);

Thanks,
