Such an mechanism may be used to monitor memory utilization and memory leaks.
Possible memory leaks tracking was main motivation for this mechanism. To scan them, memory usage should be scanned before topology creation, then some functional test should be done, topology deletion and iterate whole process a few times - when memory usage grows, then some memory leak is present. To efficiently track memory leaks, memory utilization must be scanned at strictly defined moments in FW life-cycle, it's why scan should be done on host request instead regular memory utilization printing (eq. in trace system).
