So for now, NACK until I get the response for these. Our hypervisor deals with objects and uses object-ids to identify them. The hvc doorbell object is independent of the shmem object created by hypervisor. Hypervisor treats them independently. With the patch you mentioned, hypervisor need to create an association between the doorbell object and shmem object which will make it SCMI specific change in hypervisor. Hypervisor doesn't really care if doorbell is for SCMI or for other purposes hence we are adding this new driver so it can work with our hypervisor ABIs specification.
