arm64: mte: handle tags zeroing at page allocation time
Currently, on an anonymous page fault, the kernel allocates a zeroed page and maps it in user space. If the mapping is tagged (PROT_MTE), set_pte_at() additionally clears the tags. It is, however, more efficient to clear the tags at the same time as zeroing the data on allocation. To avoid clearing the tags on any page (which may not be mapped as tagged), only do this if the vma flags contain VM_MTE. This requires introducing a new GFP flag that is used to determine whether to clear the tags. The DC GZVA instruction with a 0 top byte (and 0 tag) requires top-byte-ignore. Set the TCR_EL1.{TBI1,TBID1} bits irrespective of whether KASAN_HW is enabled.
