[PATCH v2 03/15] firmware: arm_scmi: Use mbox_ring_doorbell() instead of NULL message

[Douglas Anderson]

As per the patch ("mailbox: Deprecate NULL mbox messages; Introduce
mbox_ring_doorbell()"), we want to switch all users of NULL mailbox
messages to use mbox_ring_doorbell().

The mbox_ring_doorbell() explicitly documents not to call
mbox_client_txdone() for doorbells, so remove the call.

NOTE: this mailbox client appears to send doorbells and regular
messages on the same mailbox channel (smbox->chan), so it needs some
extra attention. Specifically, the new API behaves differently if you
ring a doorbell while a non-doorbell message is in progress. I don't
believe that this is something we have to worry about with this
mailbox client, though, because the code was calling
mbox_client_txdone() after sending the NULL message. Had a non-mailbox
message been in progress, that would have marked the in-progress
message as done instead of marking the NULL message as done.

Given that this mailbox client appears to exercise the mixed
doorbell/normal message case and the behavior there changed a tiny
bit, I'd love any extra scrutiny on this patch. Thanks!
