This is unlikely to work. Those platforms that need to send a 2 part
message, they do :
(a) Signal/Command/Target code via some controller register (via
mbox_send_message).
(b) Setup the payload in Shared-Memory (via tx_prepare).

This test driver assumes both are the same. I think you have to
declare something like

struct mbox_test_message { /* same for TX and RX */
unsigned sig_len;
void *signal; /* rx/tx via mailbox api */
unsigned pl_len;
void *payload; /* rx/tx via shared-memory */
};

Should it really fail on TX or RX only clients?
It takes write from userspace but shouldn't it also provide data
received to the userspace?
