Lorenzo Stoakes 8fad7b004b mm: refactor arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and arm64 MTE handling 
[ Upstream commit 5baf8b037d ]

Currently MTE is permitted in two circumstances (desiring to use MTE
having been specified by the VM_MTE flag) - where MAP_ANONYMOUS is
specified, as checked by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and actualised by
setting the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag, or if the file backing the mapping is
shmem, in which case we set VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap() when the mmap
hook is activated in mmap_region().

The function that checks that, if VM_MTE is set, VM_MTE_ALLOWED is also
set is the arm64 implementation of arch_validate_flags().

Unfortunately, we intend to refactor mmap_region() to perform this check
earlier, meaning that in the case of a shmem backing we will not have
invoked shmem_mmap() yet, causing the mapping to fail spuriously.

It is inappropriate to set this architecture-specific flag in general mm
code anyway, so a sensible resolution of this issue is to instead move the
check somewhere else.

We resolve this by setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED much earlier in do_mmap(), via
the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() call.

This is an appropriate place to do this as we already check for the
MAP_ANONYMOUS case here, and the shmem file case is simply a variant of
the same idea - we permit RAM-backed memory.

This requires a modification to the arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() signature to
pass in a pointer to the struct file associated with the mapping, however
this is not too egregious as this is only used by two architectures anyway
- arm64 and parisc.

So this patch performs this adjustment and removes the unnecessary
assignment of VM_MTE_ALLOWED in shmem_mmap().

README 

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.
