In ADSP MBOX IPC flow,
 
Host would call mbox send data when the shared data transfer completed.
 
(mtk_adsp_mbox_send_data will notice client using MTK_ADSP_MBOX_IN_CMD)
 
It’s more like a signal.
 
In general case,
 
There may be some hosts use the same mbox channel.
 
I think it’s better using lock to protect access to
MTK_ADSP_MBOX_IN_CMD registers
 
 
Thanks,
Allen
