Add a new VM feature 'KVM_ARM_CAP_MTE' which enables memory tagging for a VM. This will expose the feature to the guest and automatically tag memory pages touched by the VM as PG_mte_tagged (and clear the tag storage) to ensure that the guest cannot see stale tags, and so that the tags are correctly saved/restored across swap. Actually exposing the new capability to user space happens in a later patch.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
