arm64: mte: Tags-aware copy_{user_,}highpage() implementations

Browse source

When the Memory Tagging Extension is enabled, the tags need to be
preserved across page copy (e.g. for copy-on-write, page migration).

Introduce MTE-aware copy_{user_,}highpage() functions to copy tags to
the destination if the source page has the PG_mte_tagged flag set.
copy_user_page() does not need to handle tag copying since, with this
patch, it is only called by the DAX code where there is no source page
structure (and no source tags).
