Ok, I think I need to allocate the storage space locally then within
the driver. Would it be ok to call kmalloc / free in the export /
import implementation of the driver? The size of the unhashed buffer
in omap-sham is unfortunately rather large.

The allocation should usually be done from the request_alloc
function, i.e., you set the reqsize and the user does the allocation
for you.
