Looking at the DT binding, can you confirm that it lists all the HW
resources (memory ranges, IRQs, clocks, resets, ...) that are connected
to the mailbox HW module? Since you say this driver is a polling driver,
I wonder if some of the resources aren't listed in the DT bindi yet.
It'd be best to have everything present from the start.
