I had thought about this but I can't see any value in having a
separate wait queue for system threads. Here we only need to provide
an extra privileged thread for system sessions (kernel clients) such
that user-space doesn't contend for that thread. This prevents kernel
client's starvation or deadlock like in the SCMI case.

I don't think we should make thread reservations based on the presence
of TEE clients. You never know how much user-space or kernel TEE
clients you are dealing with. And reserving a single privileged thread
unconditionally for system sessions shouldn't be much of a burden for
memory constrained devices too.
Also, this way we would enable every kernel TEE client to leverage
system sessions as it's very likely they wouldn't like to compete with
user-space for thread availability. Two other kernel TEE clients that
are on top of my head are HWRNG and Trusted Keys which can benefit
from this feature.

Thanks for pointing it out. If this approach works for you then it can
be addressed while integrating in your patch-set.
