Hi Andrey,

I'm confused by this. Why/when do kimg address have a non-default tag?

Any kimg address is part of the static kernel image, so it's not obvious
to me how a kimg address would gain a tag. Could you please explain how
this happens in the commit message?

Nit: the rest of the helper macros in this file are lower-case, with
specialised helpers prefixed with several underscores. Could we please
stick with that convention?

e.g. have __tag_set() and __tag_reset() helpers.

IIUC You need to adjust __lm_to_phys() too, since that could be passed
an address from SLAB.

Maybe that's done in a later patch, but if so it's confusing to split it
out that way. It would be nicer to fix all the *_to_*() helpers in one
go.

This is painful to read. Could you please split this like:

#define _virt_addr_is_linear(kaddr) \
	(__tag_reset((u64)(kaddr)) >= PAGE_OFFSET)

... and we could reformat virt_addr_valid() in the same way while we're
at it.

Thanks,
Mark.
