You use a dash in this source file name, but an underscore
everywhere else.  Unless there's a good reason to do this,
please be consistent (use "gunyah_msgq.c").

Srini mentioned something about this too.  In many
(all?) cases, there is a device pointer available,
so you should use dev_*() functions rather than pr_*().

In this particular case, I'm not sure why/when the
mbox.dev pointer would be null.  Also, dev_*() handles
the case of a null device pointer, and it reports the
device name (just as you do here).

Above you named the variable "err".  It helps readability
if you use a very consistent naming convention for variables
of a certain type when they are used a lot.

A general comment on this code is that you sort of half define
a Gunyah message queue API.  You define an initialization
function and an exit function, but you also expose the fact
that you use the mailbox framework in implementation.  This
despite avoiding defining it as an mbox in the DTS file.

It might be hard to avoid that I guess.  But to me it would be
nice if there were a more distinct Gunyah message queue API,
which would provide a send_message() function, for example.
And in that case, perhaps you would pass in the tx_done and/or
rx_data callbacks to this function (since they're required).

All that said, this is (currently?) only used by the resource
manager, so making a beautiful API might not be that important.
Do you envision this being used to communicate with other VMs
in the future?

Can Gunyah even function if it doesn't have the MSGQUEUE feature?
Will there ever be a Gunyah implementation that does not support
it?  Perhaps this test could be done in gunyah_init() instead.

For that matter, you could verify the result of gh_api_version()
at that time also.

 From what I can tell, you will always use exactly one mailbox channel.
So you could just do kzalloc(sizeof()...).

	if (tx_ghrsc) {

The irq field is assumed to be valid.  Are there any
sanity checks you could perform?  Again this is only
used for the resource manager right now, so maybe
it's OK.

The maximum value here must fit in 8 bits.  I guess
there's no risk right now of using that up, but you
use negative values in some cases elsewhere.

request_irq() defines the IRQ value to be an unsigned int.

Can the msgq_client be embedded here too?  (I don't really
know whether msgq and msgq_client are one-to one.)

I suggested:

int gh_msgq_send(struct gh_msgq, struct gh_msgq_tx_data *data);
