If the keys are in RAM then they aren't in an HSM- they're in RAM (as well as the HSM, but that's irrelevant).
More importantly, the app is already unlocked anyway if the keys are in RAM. So that just lets you keep it unlocked. It doesn't help you unlock an app that was locked when you got access to the device.
