Nit: use /* */ style comments.

Do not change pte_access_permitted(), just let it handle the base
permissions. This check is about the mm tables, not some current POR_EL0
setting of the thread.

As an example, with this change Linux may decide not to clear the MTE
tags just because the current POR_EL0 says no-access. The thread
subsequently changes POR_EL0 and it can read the stale tags.

I haven't checked what x86 and powerpc do here. There may be some
implications on GUP but I'd rather ignore POE for this case.

Why the WARN_ON_ONCE() here? It will trigger if the user asks for
PROT_EXEC and I can't see any subsequent patch that changes the core
code not to call it. I think we need some arch_has_execute_only_pkey()
to avoid going on this path. Our arch would support exec-only with any
pkey.

Does PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS mean allow execute? Or does x86 not have a way
to disable execution?
