Therefore, waiting for the doorbell busy bit to be clear would imply that the mailbox interface is ready. The original driver implementation used the doorbell timeout for the Mailbox Interface Ready bit to piggyback off of, since the latter doesn't have a defined timeout (introduced in 8adaf747c9f0 ("cxl/mem: Find device capabilities"), a timeout has since been defined with an ECN to the 2.0 spec). With the current driver waiting for mailbox interface ready as a part of probe() it's no longer necessary to use the piggyback. With the piggybacking no longer necessary it doesn't make sense to check doorbell status when acquiring the mailbox. It will be checked during the normal mailbox exchange protocol.
