Hi Jassi,

This should be it.  Exciting times!

ST's platforms currently support a maximum of 5 Mailboxes, one for
each of the supported co-processors situated on the platform.  Each
Mailbox is divided up into 4 instances which consist of 32 channels.
Messages are passed between the application and co-processors using
shared memory areas.

Also included in the set is an example Client which should be generic
enough to use as a testing environment for all Mailbox IPs which use
shared memory or the API to pass messages.  With small changes, it
should also be able to test more extravagant implementations.

v3 -> v4:
 - More protection in MBOX_BASE() MACRO
 - Remove unused tx-only marker
Are you sure about the tx-only marker? :)

Since it is also a DT property, I think we should have it removed
before we apply the patchset. Lets get it done today.

Thanks
