The memory HOST_DDR_REGION_TYPE is a bigger memory around 43MB, while the memory
BDF_MEM_REGION_TYPE is smaller around 256KB within HOST_DDR_REGION_TYPE, Using the
above mentioned API we still have to store the offset in ath12k to point at memory
BDF_MEM_REGION_TYPE from the start of HOST_DDR_REGION_TYPE.
