Hi,

This is the second version of my series which adds support for the mailbox
controllers found on the Apple M1.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210907145501.69161-1-sven@svenpeter.dev/
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20210916154911.3168-1-sven@svenpeter.dev/

Thanks again to Jassi and Mark for the review. I've addressed your comments with the
following changes from v2 to v3:

 - removed dma barriers since the mbox client will take care of these
 - moved the of_device_id table and related code to the bottom of the file
 - removed of_xlate
 - dropped clock handling from the code and the binding since we now understand
   that these are actually power domains

Changes from v1 to v2:
 - switched to txdone_irq instead of introducing a new mode
 - switched to a threaded interrupt handler for receiving messages
 - added co-processor examples to the device tree binding
 - reformatted the register defines and clarified multiple comments

Best,

Sven
