Sorting headers alphabetically helps locating duplicates,
and makes it easier to figure out where to insert new headers.

In case of error, of_parse_phandle_with_args() returns -EINVAL when the
passed index is negative, or -ENOENT when the index is for an empty
phandle. The mailbox core overwrote the error return code with a less
precise -ENODEV. Use the error returned code from
of_parse_phandle_with_args().

hrtimer_setup() takes the callback function pointer as argument and
initializes the timer completely.

Replace hrtimer_init() and the open coded initialization of
hrtimer::function with the new setup mechanism.

Patch was created by using Coccinelle.

Use of_property_match_string() instead of open-coding the search. With
this, of_get_property() can be removed as there is no need to check for
"mbox-names" presence first.

This is part of a larger effort to remove callers of of_get_property()
and similar functions. of_get_property() leaks the DT property data
pointer which is a problem for dynamically allocated nodes which may
be freed.

The DT of_device.h and of_platform.h date back to the separate
of_platform_bus_type before it as merged into the regular platform bus.
As part of that merge prepping Arm DT support 13 years ago, they
"temporarily" include each other. They also include platform_device.h
and of.h. As a result, there's a pretty much random mix of those include
files used throughout the tree. In order to detangle these headers and
replace the implicit includes with struct declarations, users need to
explicitly include the correct includes.

<title>mailbox: forward the hrtimer if not queued and under a lock</title>

This reverts commit c7dacf5b0f32957b24ef29df1207dc2cd8307743,
"mailbox: avoid timer start from callback"

The previous commit was reverted since it lead to a race that
caused the hrtimer to not be started at all. The check for
hrtimer_active() in msg_submit() will return true if the
callback function txdone_hrtimer() is currently running. This
function could return HRTIMER_NORESTART and then the timer
will not be restarted, and also msg_submit() will not start
the timer. This will lead to a message actually being submitted
but no timer will start to check for its compleation.

The original fix that added checking hrtimer_active() was added to
avoid a warning with hrtimer_forward. Looking in the kernel
another solution to avoid this warning is to check hrtimer_is_queued()
before calling hrtimer_forward_now() instead. This however requires a
lock so the timer is not started by msg_submit() inbetween this check
and the hrtimer_forward() call.
