Per i.MX8QXP Reference mannual, Chapter "12.9.2.3.2 Messaging Examples",
Passing short messages: Transmit register(s) can be used to pass
short messages from one to four words in length. For example, when
a four-word message is desired, only one of the registers needs to
have its corresponding interrupt enable bit set at the receiver side;
the messageâs first three words are written to the registers whose
interrupt is masked, and the fourth word is written to the other
register (which triggers an interrupt at the receiver side).

i.MX8/8X SCU firmware IPC is an implementation of passing short
messages. But current imx-mailbox driver only support one word
message, i.MX8/8X linux side firmware has to request four TX
and four RX to support IPC to SCU firmware. This is low efficent
and more interrupts triggered compared with one TX and
one RX.

To make SCU channel type work,
- parse the size of msg.
- Only enable TR0/RR0 interrupt for transmit/receive message.

Please take a look at drivers/remoteproc/imx_rproc.c
especially the use of struct imx_rproc_dcfg.
Introduce simialr struct in the imx-mailbox.c

It will be some thing like:
struct imx_mu_dcfg {
unsigned int chans; /* number of supported channels */
int (*tx)(struct imx_mu_priv *priv, struct imx_mu_con_priv *cp);
int (*rx)(struct imx_mu_priv *priv, struct imx_mu_con_priv *cp);
}

Define functions for generic tx/rx. And for SCU specific tx/rx. Please, add sanity check in to SCU specific functions. In current implementation an error on SCU side will couse stack corruption on Linux side.

Use compatible string (some thing like fsl,imx8-mu-scu) to detect proper metrics of new device.

Kind regards,
