Up until this patch the user space tool that implements the message

call into TrustZone to provide the remote permission to access this
memory region. So we need some code in the kernel to represent this.

I can rework the commit message in an attempt to better explain the
setup and hope you/people find it slightly less bonkers.

Does this sound reasonable?
Please rework the commit message.  And it should probably grow a saner
module name, too.
