One option is to have controller driver construct interrupt name from
queue and proxy ids like

msgmgr: msgmgr@02a00000 {
   ....
     interrupt-names = "irq_5_2", "irq_0_0";     /* irq_<queue-id>_<proxy-id> */
     interrupts = <GIC_SPI 324 IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_RISING>,
                        <GIC_SPI 325 IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_RISING>;
}

and have the consumer specify queue and proxy ids in mboxes property like
 pmmc {
       ....
       mbox-names = "tx", "rx";
       mboxes = <&msgmgr 0 0>
                          <&msgmgr 5 2>;
};

Phandle of provider in consumer node is quite normal and acceptable.
I think Rob (at least I am) is talking about the second cell where you
specify phandle (&msgmgr_proxy_xxx) instead of values from those child
nodes directly.
Which is what I suggest   mboxes = <&msgmgr 0 0>,  <&msgmgr 5 2>;
