All other mailbox drivers use "mbox-names". Oops, it's in v4.9-rc1...
Can we still fix that?

So long as all the fixes; changes to the driver and DT are merged in a

Scrap that, change of plan. Actually current code is correct.
mbox-name does not have the same functionality as mbox-names.
mbox-names is a client-side property used to request channels, where
as mbox-name is used to provide a better user-readable name other than
mailbox{0..x}.
