Currently we allow (and explicitly check) a single shared page with StandAloneMM. This is dictated by OP-TEE which runs the application. However there's no way for us dynamically discover the number of pages we are allowed to use. Since writing big EFI signature list variables requires more than a page, OP-TEE has bumped the number of shared pages to four. Bump our page checks to four as well.
Note here that checking some kind of version and reason with the compatibility doesn't make too much sense. We sanitize the number of pages internally in our U-Boot code but eventually OP-TEE will fail if we try to write more than it's allowing. The error will just happen later on when we access StandAloneMM. So in order to avoid compatibility checks change the number to four unconditionally.

*size = 4 * OPTEE_PAGE_SIZE - MM_COMMUNICATE_HEADER_SIZE - MM_VARIABLE_COMMUNICATE_SIZE;Why do we need this check at all if OPTEE checks again?
OP-TEE will have to try and register the memory in tee_shm_register() to fail. So since we know if only allows 4 pages we have an internal sanity checking to bail out earlier.
