mailbox: omap: Remove kernel FIFO message queuing

The kernel FIFO queue has a couple issues. The biggest issue is that
it causes extra latency in a path that can be used in real-time tasks,
such as communication with real-time remote processors.

The whole FIFO idea itself looks to be a leftover from before the
unified mailbox framework. The current mailbox framework expects
mbox_chan_received_data() to be called with data immediately as it
arrives. Remove the FIFO and pass the messages to the mailbox
framework directly as part of a threaded IRQ handler.

Specify the default size of mailbox's kfifo buffers (bytes).
This can also be changed at runtime (via the mbox_kfifo_size
module parameter).
