Thanks Jens for sharing instructions to test this feature. So I tried
to reproduce using following repo versions:

linux-tee, branch: optee_ffa_v3
trusted-firmware-a, branch: ffav4_sel1_spmc
build, branch: ffav4_spmc

and rest of the repos synced to the latest version as per upstream
qemu_v8.xml [1] but I don't see OP-TEE driver being probed during boot
[2]. Am I missing something?
