Do you want this to go into git logs?

here is the right place for any history. And it is good practice to
specify whatever changes were made from last revision.

You don't seem to really need 'id'.

These 2 functions are called just once. And do what other drivers
usually inline. Wouldn't it be better to directly set & clear the bit
when needed?

You don't need to typecast a void pointer. Here and elsewhere.

You expect every platform to provide exactly 'MBOX_CNT' irqs and they
must be different (because you don't 'SHARE' when you request).
Usually developers relax either of the conditions.

No need to set .owner.
