Yes. If we use "struct cma", I guess it works.

Then it looks you also need tee operation like tee_client_open_session
and tee_client_invoke_func, right?

It seems we also need change a bit for "cma_heap_allocate" to allow cma
support operations from secure heap.

I will send a v2 to move the discussion forward. The v2 is based on our
case, It won't include the cma part.
