 I can't work out how these values relate to hardware at all. Are they in
 fact properties of the particular firmware that's loaded into the XUSB
 module? If so, I don't think the DT should contain these values at all.

Yes this is rather ugly... they're used by software for the demuxing
of messages and don't correspond to actual hardware.

 I wonder if the individual MBOX_CMD_* values from patch 2 are any
 better, although I think those are also defined by the firmware, not the
 hardware?

They are indeed defined by the firmware, so this would become an issue
if the firmware API ever changed.

Is there a common mailbox binding somewhere? I couldn't find one. While
the text above specifies the value for #mbox-cells, it doesn't specify
the details of what the property is used for (i.e. there's no
documentation of the consumer-side of this property, for parsing the
mboxes property). Typically, that would be part of a subsystem's common
binding document, and that document would be referenced here.


Ah, I see it's still being developed. I found it at:
http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1408.0/00201.html

It would be good to mention that the semantics of this property are 
defined by ../mailbox/mailbox.txt.
