lockdep_assert_held(zldev->regmap_lock) is stronger than having a
comment. When talking about i2c and spi devices, it costs nothing, and
catches bugs early.

I assume these are the only valid ways to access a mailbox?

If so:

These helpers can be made local to the core. You can then drop the
lockdep_assert_held() from here, since the only way to access them is
via the API you defined above, and add the checks in those API
functions.
