(This RFC was part of this mornings catch of my crude mail filter. So,
for what it's worth, what follows are a few random comments for the few
things I'm able to spot.)

ARCH_HISI is available on either ARM64 or ARM. ARM64 selects OF. On ARM
ARCH_HISI depends on ARCH_MULTIV7 which depends on ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM.
That selects USE_OF which on its turn selects OF.

So, HISI_MBOX implies OF, correct?

	if (!mbox->chan)

of_match_ptr(x) becomes NULL when CONFIG_OF is not defined. But I think
CONFIG_OF will always be defined, see above. So of_match_ptr() isn't per
se needed.

This could be flattened into one line:
    module_platform_driver(hi6220_mbox_driver);
