Although I am currently exploring the user-space interface, I would
like to give it a hands-on. Is it possible to run this trusted
services setup on Qemu? If yes then can you share instructions how to
test them?

I would have preferred to unite FFA_INTERRUPT and
OPTEE_FFA_YIELDING_CALL_RETURN_INTERRUPT since underneath both are
using FFA ABI.

Jens,

Can we change OP-TEE to use FFA_INTERRUPT as well when using FFA ABI?
