/**
 * A mailbox is a hardware mechanism for transferring small fixed-size messages
 * and/or notifications between the CPU on which U-Boot runs and some other
 * device such as an auxiliary CPU running firmware or a hardware module.
 *
 * Data transfer is optional; a mailbox may consist solely of a notification
 * mechanism. When data transfer is implemented, it is via HW registers or
 * FIFOs, rather than via RAM-based buffers. The mailbox API generally
 * implements any communication protocol enforced solely by hardware, and
 * leaves any higher-level protocols to other layers.
 *
 * A mailbox channel is a bi-directional mechanism that can send a message or
 * notification to a single specific remote entity, and receive messages or
 * notifications from that entity. The size, content, and format of such
 * messages is defined by the mailbox implementation, or the remote entity with
 * which it communicates; there is no general standard at this API level.
 *
 * A driver that implements UCLASS_MAILBOX is a mailbox provider. A provider
 * will often implement multiple separate mailbox channels, since the hardware
 * it manages often has this capability. mailbox-uclass.h describes the
 * interface which mailbox providers must implement.
 *
 * Mailbox consumers/clients generate and send, or receive and process,
 * messages. This header file describes the API used by clients.

 * struct mbox_chan - A handle to a single mailbox channel.

 * Clients provide storage for channels. The content of the channel structure
 * is managed solely by the mailbox API and mailbox drivers. A mailbox channel
 * is initialized by "get"ing the mailbox. The channel struct is passed to all
 * other mailbox APIs to identify which mailbox to operate upon.
 *
 * @dev: The device which implements the mailbox.
 * @id: The mailbox channel ID within the provider.
 *
 * Currently, the mailbox API assumes that a single integer ID is enough to
 * identify and configure any mailbox channel for any mailbox provider. If this
 * assumption becomes invalid in the future, the struct could be expanded to
 * either (a) add more fields to allow mailbox providers to store additional
 * information, or (b) replace the id field with an opaque pointer, which the
 * provider would dynamically allocated during its .of_xlate op, and process
 * during is .request op. This may require the addition of an extra op to clean
 * up the allocation.
