"dt-bindings: mailbox: " for the subject prefix please.

This needs a better description and a vendor prefix if not something
that should be common.

Don't use '_' or '0x'. Building your dts with W=2 will give you these
warnings. Also, should be a generic node name, so: "mailbox at ff90400"

Though without a reg property, you shouldn't have '@0'.
