"static inline functions" seemed too complicated here because most of
these macros are two lines of c-code.

Do you still insist on using "static inline functions"?

I have double checked this enum. The indentation is fine
and as-per coding style. Am I missing anything else?

Sure, will use dev_err.

This was giving minor performance improvement but I will
remove this since its against API usage.

The mbox_client_peek_data() is a hint to mailbox controller driver
to check for available messages.

This gives good performance improvement when some DMA client
code is polling using tx_status() callback.

Sure, I will extend driver to create multiple txn when
"len > req->size"

OK, I will add terminate callback.

OK, I will surely explore virt-chan.
