[PATCH V4 1/5] dt-bindings: mailbox: allow mbox-cells to be equal to 0

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Mailbox devices may have only one channel which means the mbox-cells
at least 1 does not make sense for this type devices. Let's remove
that limitation to allow the mbox-cells to be equal to 0.
