Shared mailboxes are a mechanism to transport data from one processor in the system to another. They are bidirectional links with both a producer and a consumer. Interrupts are used to let the consumer know when data was written to the mailbox by the producer, and to let the producer know when the consumer has read the data from the mailbox. These interrupts are mapped to one or more "shared interrupts". Typically each processor in the system owns one of these shared interrupts. Add documentation to the device tree bindings about how clients can use mailbox specifiers to request a specific shared mailbox and select which direction they drive. Also document how to specify the shared interrupts in addition to the existing doorbell interrupt.
