OK, I see.
That is quite a limitation, though. So, does device locking/unlocking require some HW property that resides on CAL area or what is the reason it cannot be mapped elsewhere in memory?

I assume it could be possible to write own device locking that could be used instead of the default/real device locking.
For most purposes locking anyway is just to prevent accidental or incompetent tampering with the device.
