Starting with Qualcomm SM8450, some new security enhancements has been
done in the secure world, which results in the requirement to keep the
metadata segment accessible by the secure world from init_image() until
auth_and_reset().

Introduce a "PAS metadata context" object that can be passed to
init_image() for tracking the mapped memory and a related release
function for client drivers to release the mapping once either
auth_and_reset() has been invoked or in error handling paths on the way
there.

Hi Bjorn,
I know a lot of time has passed since this patch, but this patch breaks qcom_scm_pas_auth_and_reset SCM call.
I have had MDT loader and SCM changes from this series reverted for a long time but was unable to
find the exact culprit nor how to fix it.
I even ported the TZ log driver to see if anything is obvious there but nope, calling qcom_scm_pas_auth_and_reset
after this patch is just failling which is then causing Q6 WCSS on IPQ8074 to fail probing so WLAN doesnt work.

Since I am out of ideas, I was hoping that you maybe have an idea what could be the issue, I can provide the TZ log
with all of the SCM calls when it works and when not if required.

Regards,
Robert
