We have a use case that the message to post to the mailbox is larger
than 32bit. Can we change the SMC request to take the pointer as the
message argument instead of the the value?
But in this case, I am not clear on how the ATF to validate if the pointer
is valid. Any suggestions?

Furthermore, the received response can be larger that smc response
a0, any suggestion to solve this issue? reuse the input data pointer for
ATF to write copy the response data?

In case of asynchronous request, the request can be from remote first.
How to solve this issue to use a generic SMC mailbox driver?
Use mailbox mbox_send_message() for a separate rx request channel?

Thanks,
Wendy
