I want to add that I do fully agree with you that TEE_SHM_REGISTER is an
OP-TEE thing and not a TEE thing. Ideally, it wouldn't be defined in
tee_drv.h and would be completely private to the OP-TEE driver.
Likewise, I don't think that tee_shm_register() should exist (certainly
not at the TEE level) because it only works with OP-TEE.
That said, I think the first step is to fix the kexec/kdump bugs and the
second step is to clean up the code to remove the layering violation of
exposing shm registration from the TEE interfaces.
