There exists a race when msg_submit return immediately as there was an
active request being processed which may have completed just before it's
checked again in mbox_send_message. This will result in return to the
caller without waiting in mbox_send_message even when it's blocking Tx.

This patch fixes the issue by waiting for the completion always if Tx
is in blocking mode.

Hi Jassi,

Here are fixes for few issues we encountered when dealing with multiple
requests on multiple channels simultaneously.
