Thanks for reviewing the changes, Elliot. FastRPC driver is storing
the bitfield of HLOS VMID in fastrpc_channel_ctx in perms(cctx->perms)
and remoteproc specific VMID information from device tree in vmperms(cctx->vmperms).
This information is intended to be passed to qcom_scm call when there is
a requirement to move the ownership of memory to any remoteproc VM. As
the srcvm is overwritten with the new VM, cctx->perms cannot be reused if
the same request comes for any other memory allocation.

The problem is seen with audioPD daemon. When the daemon is stated, it
allocates some memory for audioPD and moves the ownership from HLOS to
ADSP VM using qcom_scm call. After this, audioPD makes a request for some
more memory which is again allocated in kernel and as per current
implementation, qcom_scm call is again made with cctx->perms as srcVm
which is no longer storing HLOS vmid. Hence using a local variable to
make qcom_scm call where there is a need to move ownership from HLOS
to remoteproc VM.

Please let me know if you have any more queries.
