IIUC smc/hvc based mailcox is used for "tx" or too keep it simple in one direction and hardware based is used for "rx" or the other direction for communication. You *should not* mix them as single unit. Also lots of other vendor need SMC/HVC based mailbox. So make it generic and keep it separate. -- Regards, Sudeep
