help
Mailbox is a framework to control hardware communication between
on-chip processors through queued messages and interrupt driven
signals. Say Y if your platform supports hardware mailboxes.

help
An implementation of the ARM PL320 Interprocessor Communication
Mailbox (IPCM), tailored for the Calxeda Highbank. It is used to
send short messages between Highbank's A9 cores and the EnergyCore
Management Engine, primarily for cpufreq. Say Y here if you want
to use the PL320 IPCM support.
