From: Etienne Carriere <etienne.carriere@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 7adb2c8aaaa6a387af7140e57004beba2c04a4c6 ] SMC/HVC can transmit only one message at the time as the shared memory needs to be protected and the calls are synchronous. However, in order to allow multiple threads to send SCMI messages simultaneously, we need a larger poll of memory. Let us just use value of 20 to keep it in sync mailbox transport implementation. Any other value must work perfectly.
