Also add a node that since only one transfer can occur at a time and the
mailbox takes care of locking, this flag needs no locking and is used just
to check if the interrupt needs handling when it is shared.

Just wondering if this has to be for type 3 only. I am trying to avoid
conditional update of this flag, can we not do it for everything except type4 ?
(I mean just in unconditional else part)

Ditto here(for all type except type 4?)
