From: Fernando Guzman Lugo <x0095840@xxxxxx> when blk_get_request fails to get the request it is returning without read the message from the mailbox fifo, then when it leaves the isr and interruption is trigger again and again and the workqueue which get elements from the request queue is never executed and the kernel is stuck and shows a softlockup message. Now the mailbox interrupt is disabled when request queue is full and enabled when it pop a elememt form the request queue.
