+description:
+  The Apple mailbox consists of two FIFOs used to exchange 64+32 bit
+  messages between the main CPU and a co-processor. Multiple instances
+  of this mailbox can be found on Apple SoCs.
+  One of the two FIFOs is used to send data to a co-processor while the other
+  FIFO is used for the other direction.
+  Various clients implement different IPC protocols based on these simple
+  messages and shared memory buffers.
