With the current version and the upcoming planned enhancements, I don't
see any major benefits of making this as not-"no-map".

With posted enhancements[1], the plan is to qcom_scm_assign_mem() the
entire memory-region to lpass VMIDs. and un-assign it only during
fastrpc_rpmsg_remove(). There have been implementation in downstream
where this memory is dumped in case of SSR or audio PDR using minidump,
so marking it `reusable` might make sense there, but that dump logic is
not added upstream.

Upon checking the DT, I see a bigger problem here, this memory-region
looks to me unused, it's not added under fastrpc adsp node(ref. [2]).
Please correct me if I am wrong about this point.
