Thanks for this patch series.

In Qualcomm as well we have similar usecases which need secure heap. We are working on
posting them upstream, would share more details on usecases soon.

Have few comments on the current implementation.

1) I see most the implementation here is mtk specific, even file names ,heap names etc.
   But secure heap is a common requirement, can we keep naming as well generic may be secure_heap ?

2) secure heap has two parts, one is allocation and other one is securing the memory.
   Have few comments on making these interfaces generic, would post those on corresponding 
   patches.

Thanks,
Vijay
