Add a testcase to check that user address with valid/invalid

__arch_copy_from_user/__arch_copy_to_user works by considering
if the user pointer has valid/invalid allocation tags.
In MTE sync mode a SIGSEV fault is generated if a user memory
with invalid tag is accessed in kernel. In async mode no such
fault occurs.
We don't generate a SIGSEGV for faults in the uaccess routines. The
kernel simply returns less copied bytes than what was requested or -1
and setting errno.
ok. I will update in the next iteration.
BTW, Qemu has a bug and it reports the wrong exception class (lower
DABT) for a tag check fault while in the uaccess routines, leading to
kernel panic (bad mode in synchronous abort handler).
Yes I am also seeing this.

My reading of the man page is that errno is set only if read() returns
-1.
Yes. The checks should be optimized here.

Nitpick: just use "if (fault &&), it's a bool already.

Same here, !fault, !cur_mte_cxt.fault_valid.
ok.
