It seems ->startup is called with the channel spinlock held, but as
each channel is independent, the RMW sequence here could lead to
unexpected results?

I expect you need a spinlock to protect against concurrent changes to
channel state.

See comment above.

The ternary expression is unnecessary, we can instead do:

   return !!ast2700_mbox_tx_done(mb, idx);

Calling this drv_data is slightly confusing. Perhaps dev_data?

Again, this is data about the device, not data about the driver.
Perhaps ast2700_dev_data?
