Here i have one question, the rx channel's message queue is looks like a common mechanism and can be added into framework file mailbox.c, then Soc driver file can _ONLY_ focus on register level's operations. If so, the common driver in this patch also is unnecessary. Do you suggest to use upper method to rework patches? Or just think it's okay to implement rx channel's message queue in hi6220-mailbox.c?
