arm64: kasan: allow to init memory when setting tags



Patch series "kasan: integrate with init_on_alloc/free", v3.

This patch series integrates HW_TAGS KASAN with init_on_alloc/free by
initializing memory via the same arm64 instruction that sets memory tags.

This is expected to improve HW_TAGS KASAN performance when
init_on_alloc/free is enabled.  The exact perfomance numbers are unknown
as MTE-enabled hardware doesn't exist yet.

This patch (of 5):

This change adds an argument to mte_set_mem_tag_range() that allows to
enable memory initialization when settinh the allocation tags.  The
implementation uses stzg instruction instead of stg when this argument
indicates to initialize memory.

Combining setting allocation tags with memory initialization will improve
HW_TAGS KASAN performance when init_on_alloc/free is enabled.

This change doesn't integrate memory initialization with KASAN, this is
done is subsequent patches in this series.
