Oh, it was added when I was developing this feature, but in the end
this seems not needed.

As wrote in commit message:
"i.MX7ULP Linux poweroff and restart rely on rpmsg driver to send a
message," so need to set up mailbox in non-blocking way to send
a message to M4 side.

Sorry, I not get your point. The free is in imx_rproc_sys_off_handler.
During system booting, the mailbox is not freed.

Thanks,
