OMAP: mailbox: add notification support for multiple readers
In the current mailbox driver, the mailbox internal pointer for
callback can be directly manipulated by the Users, so a second
User can easily corrupt the first user's callback pointer.
The initial effort to correct this issue can be referred here:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/107520/
Along with fixing the above stated issue, this patch adds the
flexibility option to register notifications from
multiple readers to the events received on a mailbox instance.
The discussion regarding this can be referred here.
