I'm not sure what you're implying. By running on a device with Trustzone
extensions, Linux is using them whether it knows it or not.
Linux on ARMs evaluation boards runs on the secure size of the Trustzone
dividing line. Linux on OMAP SoCs runs on the insecure size of that,
and has to make secure monitor calls to manipulate certain registers
(eg, to enable workarounds for errata etc). As SMC calls are highly
implementation specific, there is and can be no "trustzone" driver.
