You need to squash the patches updating the calls to this function.
Otherwise, this patch does not compile.

You are overriding the user parameter.
As it is only for a new event, it can be described in the register API
that the user param won't be returned for this event.
But a better design would be to add a new parameter to the callback.
However it will be an API breakage.

Sorry I do not parse well this line.
The event name is VF_MBOX and the comment is about the callback
processing this event on PF side?
I would suggest this kind of comment: "message from VF received by PF"

In a more generic case, the parameter gives some details about the event.
