This patch is a part of a series that extends arm64 kernel ABI to allow to
pass tagged user pointers (with the top byte set to something else other
than 0x00) as syscall arguments.

prctl_set_mm() and prctl_set_mm_map() use provided user pointers for vma
lookups and do some pointer comparisons to perform validation, which can
only by done with untagged pointers.

Untag user pointers in these functions for vma lookup and validity checks.

I think this new version is consistent w.r.t. tagged/untagged pointer usage. However, I also note that a significant change has been introduced: it is now possible to set MM fields to tagged addresses (tags are ignored by validate_prctl_map()). I am not opposed to this as such, but have you considered the implications? Does it make sense to have a tagged value for e.g. prctl_map.arg_start? Is the kernel able to handle tagged values in those fields? I have the feeling that it's safer to discard tags for now, and if necessary allow them to be preserved later on.
