From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@xxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 20794545c14692094a882d2221c251c4573e6adf ] This reverts commit e5b8d9218951e59df986f627ec93569a0d22149b. Pages mapped in user-space with PROT_MTE have the allocation tags either zeroed or copied/restored to some user values. In order for the kernel to access such pages via page_address(), resetting the tag in page->flags was necessary. This tag resetting was deferred to set_pte_at() -> mte_sync_page_tags() but it can race with another CPU reading the flags (via page_to_virt()): P0 (mte_sync_page_tags): P1 (memcpy from virt_to_page): Rflags!=0xff Wflags=0xff DMB (doesn't help) Wtags=0 Rtags=0 // fault Since now the post_alloc_hook() function resets the page->flags tag when unpoisoning is skipped for user pages (including the __GFP_ZEROTAGS case), revert the arm64 commit calling page_kasan_tag_reset().
