Is the shared-buffer a part of mailbox controller or just regular
memory that could be used for purposes other than mailbox also? If
latter, please remove it from here.

sorry, what must be 0?  You have MBOX_CHAN_MAX and MBOX_CHAN_NUM as 32
and 2 in the driver.

The shared-buffer is part of mailbox controller, this region cannot be
dynamically allocated for other purpose; it's hardcode by MCU firmware.

Will fix it.

Thanks,

+Hisilicon Hi6220 Mailbox Driver
+===============================
+
+Hisilicon Hi6220 mailbox supports up to 32 channels. Each channel
+is unidirectional with a maximum message size of 8 words. I/O is
+performed using register access (there is no DMA) and the cell
+raises an interrupt when messages are received.
+
+Mailbox Device Node:
+====================
+
+Required properties:
+--------------------
+- compatible:		Shall be "hisilicon,hi6220-mbox"
+- reg:			Contains the mailbox register address range (base
+			address and length); the first item is for IPC
+			registers, the second item is shared buffer for
+			slots.
+- #mbox-cells		Common mailbox binding property to identify the number
+			of cells required for the mailbox specifier. Should be 1.
+- interrupts:		Contains the interrupt information for the mailbox
+			device. The format is dependent on which interrupt
+			controller the SoCs use.
+
+Example:
+--------
+
+	mailbox: mailbox@F7510000 {
+		#mbox-cells = <1>;
+		compatible = "hisilicon,hi6220-mbox";
+		reg = <0x0 0xF7510000 0x0 0x1000>, /* IPC_S */
+		      <0x0 0x06DFF800 0x0 0x0800>; /* Mailbox */
+		interrupt-parent = <&gic>;
+		interrupts = <0 94 4>;
+	};
+
+
+Mailbox client
+===============
+
+"mboxes" and the optional "mbox-names" (please see
+Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mailbox/mailbox.txt for details). Each value
+of the mboxes property should contain a phandle to the mailbox controller
+device node and second argument is the channel index. It must be 0 (hardware
+support only one channel). The equivalent "mbox-names" property value can be
+used to give a name to the communication channel to be used by the client user.
+
+Example:
+--------
+
+	stub_clock: stub_clock {
+		compatible = "hisilicon,hi6220-stub-clk";
+		hisilicon,hi6220-clk-sram = <&sram>;
+		#clock-cells = <1>;
+		mbox-names = "mbox-tx";
+		mboxes = <&mailbox 1>;
+	};
