You seem to parse the requests and responses, that should ideally be
done in client driver.
Also, we are here in atomic context, can you move it in client driver
(before the spin_lock)?
Maybe by adding a new 'pa_base' member as well in 'cmdq_pkt'.

You mean  i < CMDQ_THR_MAX_COUNT

You seem the queue mailbox requests in this controller driver? why not
use the mailbox api for that?

Here again... you seem to ignore the polling mechanism provided by the
mailbox api, and implement your own.

maybe add 'pa_base' here so you don't have to do dma_map_single() in send_data
