Yes, Octeontx needed mbox definitions and it was defined at event area.

But You are right that adding event dependency in mempool may create issues
for future feature like you mentioned.

Right.
Proposed change for makefile will be:

diff --git a/drivers/Makefile b/drivers/Makefile
index 3a5b22342..0467250aa 100644
--- a/drivers/Makefile
+++ b/drivers/Makefile

 DEPDIRS-crypto := bus mempool

Can you give it a try and let me know your feedback.

Thanks.
