The reason for the change is that the register is called System Handler
Priority Register 3 (SHPR3).

Some of the privileged symbols were not being placed in their respective
sections. This commit addresses those and places them in
privileged_functions or privileged_data section.

If xTaskCreate API is used to create a task, the task's stack is
allocated on heap using pvPortMalloc. This places the task's stack
in the privileged data section, if the heap is placed in the
privileged data section.
We use a separate MPU region to grant a task access to its stack.
If the task's stack is in the privileged data section, this results in
overlapping MPU regions as privileged data section is already protected
using a separate MPU region. ARMv8-M does not allow overlapping MPU
regions and this results in a fault. This commit ensures to not use a
separate MPU region for the task's stack if it lies within the
privileged data section.
Note that if the heap memory is placed in the privileged data section,
the xTaskCreate API cannot be used to create an unprivileged task as
the task's stack will be in the privileged data section and the task
won't have access to it. xTaskCreateRestricted and
xTaskCreateRestrictedStatic API should be used to create unprivileged
tasks.
