There are use-cases where user-space shouldn't be allowed to communicate

OK
and disallow user-space to open-session using GP implementation
defined login method range: (0x80000000 - 0xFFFFFFFF).
I'm not sure this is correct, because it would prevent the client library or the TEE supplicant from using such values, although they are part of the TEE implementation; and further, nothing mandates that an implementation-defined method should not be used directly by client applications.
Initial implementation of this patch only put restriction for single
implementation-defined login method (TEE_IOCTL_LOGIN_REE_KERNEL) only.
But after discussion with Jens here [1], I have changed that to
restrict complete implementation-defined range. If we think to further
partition this range considering API stability then I am open to that
too.
[1] https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1088062/
In the end he proposed to reserve half the range for user space and half
for kernel space.
