With these changes, there is no more a specific waiting list for TEE
system threads hence when a waiting queue can complete, we'll pick any
TEE thread, not a TEE system thread first..
Also, as stated in a below answer, these change unconditionally
reserve a TEE thread for TEE system calls even if no TEE client
reserved such.

This unconditionally reserves a TEE thread for TEE system calls, even
if no client has claimed such system thread reservation.

Nitpicking: should rather return 0 only upon session is valid
(sess!=NULL here) and system thread reservation is supported
(total_thread_count > 0).
But that's not a big deal I guess, can be addressed.
