The original entry was unnamed since it is an unique entry and thus does not
need to be differentiate on this platform.

        { .irq = 26 + OMAP44XX_IRQ_GIC_START },

Do you really need to have a name here? The strategy being to provide a name
only if more than one entry exist.
It is perfectibility doable, I'm just trying to understand your rational.

It is this way instead of plain platform_get_irq because omap2420 has
two interrupt sources to MPU and mailbox driver uses
platform_get_irq_byname to get the irq number.

This is what I was thinking, except that on OMAP2420 the names are:
+	{ .name = "dsp", .irq = 26, },
+	{ .name = "iva", .irq = 34, },

and on OMAP2430 and OMAP3
+	{ .name = "dsp", .irq = 26, },

so why is it named "mbox" on OMAP4?

If you have to do several platform_get_irq_byname to get this one, I'd prefer to get rid of that name for OMAP4. It will make mailbox irq consistent with the other hwmods.

Thanks,
Benoit
