OMAP2 is an SoC Architecture with a bunch of SoCs - OMAP2420,
OMAP2430... OMAP2+ refers to the combination of platforms from OMAP2,
OMAP3, OMAP4, OMAP5. Mailbox is a inter-processor communication
hardware block that has been used since OMAP2 generation of SoCs. The
same hardware block is used in K3 architecture as well.

So, call it OMAP2 Mailbox rather than TI OMAP2.
