It's not i/o memory, it's just a mailbox in ram - it's mapped with
memremap() in this driver.

I asked that Samuel to share this here, but perhaps we should consider
it still as an RFC. I have tested this with some of my platforms, but
I want to test more.

I would also like to see if it's possible to take care of this problem
in ucsi_acpi.c so we don't have to touch the ucsi core.
