In mailbox_get_msg(), mailbox_reg_read_non_zero() is called to poll for a
non-zero tail pointer. This assumed that a zero value indicates an error.
However, certain corner cases legitimately produce a zero tail pointer.
To handle these cases, remove mailbox_reg_read_non_zero(). The zero tail
pointer will be treated as a valid rewind event.
