Hi,
looks quite good now, some smaller comments below.
I think the only thing left is the "function ID passed by the client" topic.
Have you tried using this interface using hvc, for instance in KVM or Xen? For instance to provide access to a clock for a passed-through platform device?
Another use case that pops up from time to time is GPIO for guests. This sounds like a use case for using the register interface, also we could use the hvc return value.

Shouldn't this be u32 and u64 here, as the data type has this explicit length in the SMCCC?

If this is the data structure that this mailbox controller uses, I would expect this to be documented somewhere, or even exported.
And again, I don't like the idea of having the function ID in here.

Don't we need to provide something to confirm reception to the client? In our case we can set this as soon as the smc/hvc returns.
Cheers,
Andre.
