The Mailbox API so far discounted controllers and clients that
may not have a DT based channel mapping capability, as in ACPI.

Allow such mailbox clients to ask for a mailbox channel by simply
specifying a token. The token would be globally unique
among channels provided by such controllers... which shouldn't
be a problem because practically non-DT means ACPI and ACPI
specifies just one controller instance called the Platform
Communications Channel (PCC) that could have max 256 subspaces
(channels or mailboxes). So this is simply going to be the value
from 'Signature' field (first 4bytes) of the SharedMemory Region
corresponding to the subspace/channel the client is interested in.
