Patch

From 6fe6e583f0b23b08643a4a85545a9a5338b9b1a0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Ashwin Chaugule <ashwin.chaugule@linaro.org>
Date: Wed, 11 Jun 2014 16:09:35 -0400
Subject: [PATCH] Mailbox: Add support for ACPI

The current mailbox framework only supports DT based bindings.
Add another mechanism for mailbox clients to register with mailbox
controllers and request for specific mailbox channels. This enables
usage of the mailbox framework on kernels with ACPI support.
