The mailbox framework controls the transmission queue and requires either its controller implementations or clients to run the state machine for the Tx queue. The OMAP mailbox controller uses a Tx-ready interrupt as the equivalent of a Tx-done interrupt to run this Tx queue state-machine. The WkupM3 processor on AM33xx and AM43xx SoCs is used to offload certain PM tasks, like doing the necessary operations for Device PM suspend/resume or for entering lower c-states during cpuidle. The CPUIdle on AM33xx requires the messages to be sent without having to trigger the Tx-ready interrupts, as the interrupt would immediately terminate the CPUIdle operation. Support for this has been added by introducing a DT quirk, "ti,mbox-send-noirq" and using it to modify the normal OMAP mailbox controller behavior on the sub-mailboxes used to communicate with the WkupM3 remote processor. This also requires the wkup_m3_ipc driver to adjust its mailbox usage logic to run the Tx state machine. NOTE: - AM43xx does not communicate with WkupM3 for CPU Idle, so is not affected by this behavior. But, it uses the same IPC driver for PM suspend/resume functionality, so requires the quirk as well, because of changes to the common wkup_m3_ipc driver.
