In this case drivers should use tee_shm_register() instead where the
memory allocated is actually private to the driver. However, you need
to remove TEE_SHM_DMA_BUF as a mandatory flag for tee_shm_register().
Have a look at an example here [1]. So modifying tee_shm_alloc() for
this purpose doesn't look appropriate to me.
