Subject: [PATCH v1] misc: fastrpc: Trigger a panic using BUG_ON in device release

The user process on ARM closes the device node while closing the
session, triggers a remote call to terminate the PD running on the
DSP. If the DSP is in an unstable state and cannot process the remote
request from the HLOS, glink fails to deliver the kill request to the
DSP, resulting in a timeout error. Currently, this error is ignored,
and the session is closed, causing all the SMMU mappings associated
with that specific PD to be removed. However, since the PD is still
operational on the DSP, any attempt to access these SMMU mappings
results in an SMMU fault, leading to a panic.  As the SMMU mappings
have already been removed, there is no available information on the
DSP to determine the root cause of its unresponsiveness to remote
calls. As the DSP is unresponsive to all process remote calls, use
BUG_ON to prevent the removal of SMMU mappings and to properly
identify the root cause of the DSP’s unresponsiveness to the remote
calls.
