Tegra DLA seems to work with a slave coprocessor, the host driver just
impelement message queue, share buffer, notification... The hardware
detail of DLA maybe in the slave driver(not linux OS?).

Sure, This driver just support for the SOCs or FPGAs that OPENDLA
inside. I will change this kind of description "integrated into NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier"
this driver dont support for Tegra directly.
