This patchwork is not fixing the issue and changing MSA mapping sequence
is major design change.
This issue is only seen with DB845 which uses SCM call, newer targets
QCS404/SC7180/SM8150 will not have this issue as MSA mapping is
hard-coded in TZ.
Probably changes in qmi layer to give different indication for this
scenario and changes in FW is required to mitigate this issue
gracefully.

BR,
Govind
