+Allwinner sun6i Message Box
+===========================
+
+The hardware message box on sun6i and newer sunxi SoCs is a two-user mailbox
+controller containing 8 unidirectional FIFOs. An interrupt is raised for
+received messages, but software must poll to know when a transmitted message
has
+been acknowledged by the remote user.
+
+Refer to ./mailbox.txt for generic information about mailbox device-tree
+bindings.
+
+Mailbox Device Node:
+====================
+
+Required properties:
+--------------------
+- compatible: Must contain at least "allwinner,sun6i-a31-msgbox".
+ Should also contain another SoC-specific string when
+ used on other SoCs which are compatible, e.g.
+ - allwinner,sun6i-a31-msgbox
+ - allwinner,sun8i-a83t-msgbox,
allwinner,sun6i-a31-msgbox
+ - allwinner,sun8i-h3-msgbox, allwinner,sun6i-a31-msgbox
+ - allwinner,sun9i-a80-msgbox, allwinner,sun6i-a31-msgbox
+ - allwinner,sun50i-a64-msgbox,
allwinner,sun6i-a31-msgbox
+ - allwinner,sun50i-h6-msgbox, allwinner,sun6i-a31-msgbox
+- reg: Contains the mailbox register address range (base
+ address and length).
+- clocks: phandle for the bus clock controller and specifier.
+- resets: phandle for the bus reset controller and specifier.
+- interrupts: Contains interrupt information for the mailbox.
+- #mbox-cells: Must be 1.
+
+Example:
+--------
+
+ msgbox: mailbox@1c17000 {
+ compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3-msgbox",
+ "allwinner,sun6i-a31-msgbox";
+ reg = <0x01c17000 0x1000>;
+ clocks = <&ccu CLK_BUS_MSGBOX>;
+ resets = <&ccu RST_BUS_MSGBOX>;
+ interrupts = <GIC_SPI 49 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
+ #mbox-cells = <1>;
+ };
