Since different DSM region size is required for different modem 
firmware, mpss_dsmharq_mem region being split into 2 separate regions.
This would provide the flexibility to remove the region which is
not required for a particular platform.
qlink_logging is being added at the memory region at the address of
0x88800000 as the region is being used by modem firmware.
