The special case simply means the the protected content buffer.

I need to know the imported buffer is allocated from restricted cma and
mark it as a secure buffer in mediatek-drm driver. Then, I will add
some configuration to the hardware if the buffer is secure buffer, so
that it can get the permission to access the secure buffer.

You mean I should allocate buffer in mediate-drm driver not userspace?
I just have modified this to userspace by the comment here:

We use the same mediatek-drm driver for secure and non-secure buffer.
If non-secure buffer imported to mediatek-drm driver, it's go to the
normal flow with normal hardware settings.

We use different configurations to make hardware have different
permission to access the buffer it should access.

So if we can't get the information of "the buffer is allocated from
restricted_mtk_cma" when importing the buffer into the driver, we won't
be able to configure the hardware correctly.
