+description:
+ The Control-Processors Cluster (CPC) provides Arm-platform specification
+ entities for managing the system. One of the CPC processors is the System
+ Control Processor (SCP). The SCP is responsible, among others, for booting
+ the chip, clock and power initialization, controlling power consumption
+ through DVFS, monitoring temperature sensors and controlling AVS. The SCP,
+ as each XCP, contains mailboxes for software-to-software communications.
+ Mailbox writes cause an interrupt to the local XCP core or to the AP.
+ This driver exposes AP-SCP Message Handling Unit to the system, providing
+ the mailbox communication mechanism to the system, with the intention
+ of plugging into the SCMI framework. It is designed to work with Marvell
+ OcteonTX and OcteonTX2-based platforms.
+ Mailbox has no other usage than SCMI communication. In case of
+ configurations running without SCMI support it should be disabled.

And wrong indentation below, so this was not tested. Please do not send

Why this is needed?

unit address is still wrong.
