Same here :)

Yup, we have to.

On S7x, even built-in is not early enough for our purposes. But yes,
now that we have company it should be made tristate.

Yes that is a protocol level agreement. Different f/w may behave differently.

Yeah, probably unnecessary.

This is controller driver, and can not know which client want
rx_callback in hard-irq context and which in thread_fn context.
Otherwise, request_irq() does evaluate to request_threaded_irq(), if
thats what you mean.
 There might be use-cases like (diagnostic or other) data transfer
over mailbox where we don't wanna increase latency, so we have to
provide a rx_callback in hard-irq context.

On the contrary, I think the device driver code should be able to
manage every resource - secure or non-secure. If we remove secure
channel option, what do we do on some other platform that needs it?
And Linux may not always run in non-secure mode.
 So here we populate all channels and let the clients knows which
channel to use via platform specific details - DT. Please note the
driver doesn't touch any secure resource if client doesn't ask it to
(except SCFG for now, which I think should have some S vs NS DT
binding).
