Yep sorry, I'll clean it up.

So like rmtfs, this memory zone is shared between APPS and the MPSS subsystem.

Like rmtfs it makes no sense to link it to the MPSS PAS, since it's only a launcher,
it doesn't represent the MPSS subsystem.

In the PAS startup process, the resources are released from APPS once the MPSS subsystem
is running, which is not the case with the MPSS DSM where it must be shared during the whole
lifetime of the system.
