From: Peter Collingbourne <pcc@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 8c8a3b5bd960cd88f7655b5251dc28741e11f139 upstream.
This lets us avoid doing unnecessary work on hardware that does not
support MTE, and will allow us to freely use MTE instructions in the
code called by mte_thread_switch().
Since this would mean that we do a redundant check in
mte_check_tfsr_el1(), remove it and add two checks now required in its
callers. This also avoids an unnecessary DSB+ISB sequence on the syscall
exit path for hardware not supporting MTE.
Fixes: 65812c6921cc ("arm64: mte: Enable async tag check fault")
