Are you suggesting that I go back to that implementation.

No, the platform code should use the SRAM allocator and
pass on the allocated memory to the driver.

SG - So, should I call the sram_alloc() in the platform setup function. Something like this:

suart_probe() {
...
pdata.setup(&sram_aadr);
...use sram data;
}

suart_remove() {
...
pdata.free(&sram_aadr);
...
}
