These reg spaces are quite far apart.. On 7280-8550, a similar
mailbox exists, although it's dubbed RIMPS-mbox instead. In
that case, I separated the mbox into tx (via
qcom-apcs-ipc-mailbox.c) and rx (with a simple driver). Still
haven't pushed or posted that anywhere, I'd need to access
another machine..

On (some of) these SoCs, one of the channels (rx[1], iirc?) clearly
bleeds into the CPUFREQ_HW/OSM register region, which gives an
impression of misrepresenting the hardware. X1E doesn't have a
node for cpufreq_hw defined, so I can't tell whether it's also the
case here.
