+ARM MHU Mailbox Driver
+======================
+
+The ARM's Message-Handling-Unit (MHU) is a mailbox controller that has
+3 independent channels/links to communicate with remote processor(s).
+ MHU links are hardwired on a platform. A link raises interrupt for any
+received data. However, there is no specified way of knowing if the sent
+data has been read by the remote. This driver assumes the sender polls
+STAT register and the remote clears it after having read the data.
+The last channel is specified to be a 'Secure' resource, hence can't be
+used by Linux running NS.
+
+Mailbox Device Node:
+====================
+
+Required properties:
+--------------------
+- compatible:          Shall be "arm,mhu" & "arm,primecell"
+- reg:                 Contains the mailbox register address range (base
+                       address and length)
+- #mbox-cells          Shall be 1 - the index of the channel needed.
+- interrupts:          Contains the interrupt information corresponding to
+                       each of the 3 links of MHU.
+

I tried using this driver and found that AMBA driver expects apb_clk
without which probe fails. Though your example have it, it's not
explicit from the binding. Also AMBA binding expects the primecell id in
the binding.
