If you have to do several platform_get_irq_byname to get this one, I'd
prefer to get rid of that name for OMAP4. It will make mailbox irq
consistent with the other hwmods.
I was thinking to standardize the names to be mbox0..mboxN across all
the platforms, reason being that the mailbox also has capabilities to
be used not only by dsp or iva, by using a polling method.

So even if the mailbox in OMAP3 is called "dsp", it has 4 more queues
apart from the 2 used for messaging between arm and dsp, that could be
used even if tidspbridge wasn't there.
So what's the status of this series? Can the rest of the patches
now be applied on top of the current omap-for-linus or do the names
still need fixing?
I'm going to remove the names for the hwmods with a single irq. And
change the interface clock to be the main_clk, so it can be disabled
when runtime pm is disabled.

I won't resend the patch for OMAP4 hwmod data, as this was send
earlier by Benoit.

Regards,

Omar
