irq_to_desc() is not exported to loadable modules, so this driver now
fails to link in some configurations:

ERROR: modpost: "irq_to_desc" [drivers/mailbox/zynqmp-ipi-mailbox.ko] undefined!

I can't see a purpose for this call, since the return value is unused
and probably left over from some code refactoring.

Address the link failure by just removing the line.

<title>mailbox: Convert from tasklet to BH workqueue</title>

The only generic interface to execute asynchronously in the BH context is
tasklet; however, it's marked deprecated and has some design flaws. To
replace tasklets, BH workqueue support was recently added. A BH workqueue
behaves similarly to regular workqueues except that the queued work items
are executed in the BH context.

The return value of pm_runtime_get_sync() in cmdq_mbox_shutdown()
will return 1 when pm runtime state is active, and we don't want to
get the warning message in this case.

So we change the return value &lt; 0 for WARN_ON().

At least one IPI is used in TF-A for communication with PMC firmware.
If this IPI needs to be used by other agents such as RPU then, IPI
system interrupt can't be generated in mailbox driver. In such case
TF-A generates SGI to mailbox driver for IPI notification.

<title>mailbox: omap: Remove kernel FIFO message queuing</title>

The kernel FIFO queue has a couple issues. The biggest issue is that
it causes extra latency in a path that can be used in real-time tasks,
such as communication with real-time remote processors.

The whole FIFO idea itself looks to be a leftover from before the
unified mailbox framework. The current mailbox framework expects
mbox_chan_received_data() to be called with data immediately as it
arrives. Remove the FIFO and pass the messages to the mailbox
framework directly as part of a threaded IRQ handler.

It is much more clear to check if the hardware FIFO is full and return
EBUSY if true. This allows us to also remove one level of indention
from the core of this function. It also makes the similarities between
omap_mbox_chan_send_noirq() and omap_mbox_chan_send() more obvious.

This function only checks if mbox_chan *chan is not NULL, but that cannot
be the case and if it was returning NULL which is not later checked
doesn't save us from this. The second check for chan-&gt;con_priv is
completely redundant as if it was NULL we would return NULL just the
same. Simply dereference con_priv directly and remove this function.

The driver stores a list of omap_mbox structs so it can later use it to
lookup the mailbox names in of_xlate. This same information is already
available in the mbox_controller passed into of_xlate. Simply use that
data and remove the extra allocation and storage of the omap_mbox list.
