It doesn't indeed. What it does is a get_user_pages() but it's not of
much help since the VMM pte wouldn't be tagged (we would have solved
lots of problems if we required PROT_MTE in the VMM...)

For ptrace we return a -EOPNOTSUPP if the address doesn't have VM_MTE
but I don't think it makes sense here, so I'm fine with clearing the
destination and assuming that the tags are zero (as they'd be on
faulting into the guest.

Another thing I forgot to ask, what's guaranteeing that the page
supports tags? Does this ioctl ensure that it would attempt the tag
copying from some device mapping? Do we need some kvm_is_device_pfn()
check? I guess ZONE_DEVICE memory we just refuse to map in an earlier
patch.

I think a set_bit() would do, I doubt it's any more efficient. But why
not add it in the 'else' block above where we actually wrote the tags?
The copy function may have failed part-way through. Maybe your logic is
correct though, there are invalid tags in the page. Just add a comment.
