There are use-cases where user-space shouldn't be allowed to communicate directly with a TEE device which is dedicated to provide a specific service for a kernel client. So add a private login method for kernel clients and disallow user-space to open-session using GP implementation defined login method range: (0x80000000 - 0xFFFFFFFF).
