If the unmap is restricted to audio daemon, then the unmap will only
happen if the remoteproc is no longer using this memory.

But without this restriction, yes it possible that some userspace process
calls unmap which tries to move the ownership back to HLOS which the
remoteproc is still using the memory. This might lead to memory access
problems.
