Send this to lkml as well next time you submit.

Call this ASPEED_LPC_MAILBOX, as it's a in the LPC IP block.

Call this Aspeed LPC Mailbox Controller, as the layout is shared by
SoCs other than the 2500 and 2400.

As discussed in the LPC driver review:

 "And don't call access_ok(), it's racy and no driver should ever do that."

Make sure all of the things you fixed in that driver are fixed in this one.

W1C? Write to clear?
