The patch below implements something like this. It is PoC, build-tested only.

To be honest, I hate it. It is clearly a layering violation. It feels
dirty. But I don't see any better way as we tie orthogonal features
together.

Also I have no idea how to make forced PASID allocation if LAM enabled.
What the API has to look like?

Any comments?

I'm not quite follow this. For syscalls that allow tagged pointers, we do
untagged_addr() now. Not sure what else needed.
