The solution you introduced for venus and adreno relies on static reservations of system ram, which isn't pretty, but more importantly isn't viable for the qcom_scm driver. So, how do I dynamically allocate a chunk of coherent memory? Preferably with the possibility of unmapping it temporarily from Linux while passing the buffer into the trusted environment (as any accesses during the operation might cause access violations).
