From: Aleksey Makarov <redacted> This patch adds mailbox support infrastructure APIs. Each RVU device has a dedicated 64KB mailbox region shared with it's peer for communication. RVU AF has a separate mailbox region shared with each of RVU PFs and a RVU PF has a separate region shared with each of it's VF. These set of APIs are used by this driver (RVU AF) and other RVU PF/VF drivers eg netdev, crypto e.t.c.

Why does this driver not use the drivers/mailbox/ infrastructure?
