The mailbox_controller.h said that .last_tx_done() is used only if
txdone_poll:=true && txdone_irq:=false.
How about add a verification at the begining of this function? like "if
(chan->txdone_method != MBOX_TXDONE_BY_POLL) return false;"
And then call mbox_chan_received_data() directly if command completed.
This patch is ok to me if has above changes.
Acked-by: lihuisong@huawei.com
But pcc mbox controller can no longer work in MBOX_TXDONE_BY_ACK after
your commit:
3349f800609e (mailbox: pcc: Set txdone_irq/txdone_poll based on PCCT flags).
This may lead to above client drivers fail to send mailbox command, like
cppc_acpi,hisi_uncore_freq and kunpeng_hccs.
Because these client driver knows tx_done(knows_txdone: true), work on
this mode and need to call mbox_client_txdone.
Do you have some idea for this?
