The use of a tagged address could be pretty confusing for the
whole memslot infrastructure as well as the MMU notifiers.

Forbid it altogether, as it never quite worked the first place.

  It is recommended that the lower 21 bits of guest_phys_addr and userspace_addr
  be identical.  This allows large pages in the guest to be backed by large
  pages in the host.

Indeed untagged_addr was added in 5.3.
