Or, did you mean

thread ch: 6 -> 12
cpu rx ch: 13 (1 channel)

Or did you mean
ch >= bpmp->soc_data->thread_ch_index + bpmp->soc_data->nr_thread_ch ?

I second Alex's concerns. It would better not to depend on the
adjacency of the channels. Also I think this data should come from the
device tree.

I second this.

We should be using the mrq request structures from the ABI header.

It is not clear to me what you mean by 'one-way request' here. We are
sending a request to get the tag and we are getting the tag back via the
same message's response. Anyway, we should be using the 'struct
mrq_query_tag_request' here to be consistent.

Either way, since this specific MRQ takes in only 32 bit address, I
think we should follow Alex's recommendation to use the GFP_DMA32 flag.

If we need to pass a larger-than-32 bit address for this MRQ (or for
anything that takes in a 32-bit address now), the agreed upon process is
to define a new MRQ (i.e one with a different integer id) that takes in
new address type (and deprecating the 32-bit MRQ version).

It should have --- mbox_client_txdone() essentilly does nothing now.
