The rx callback only makes sense for one of the two mailboxes, and thus is not appropriate for a generic function. Either initialize_mailbox needs more complex logic, or would blindly assign the callback to both mailboxes, neither of which simplifies or streamlines the code. That function emerged as a way to reduce duplication. Lets keep it that way.
It depends on you. But please reply my below comment. I didn't see any change about it in next version. -->

+Why does it not need to know if the packet is sent successfully? It's possible for the platform not to finish to send the packet after executing this unlock. In this moment, the previous packet may be modified by the new packet to be sent.
