arm64: mte: Lock a page for MTE tag initialisation
Initialising the tags and setting PG_mte_tagged flag for a page can race
between multiple set_pte_at() on shared pages or setting the stage 2 pte
via user_mem_abort(). Introduce a new PG_mte_lock flag as PG_arch_3 and
set it before attempting page initialisation. Given that PG_mte_tagged
is never cleared for a page, consider setting this flag to mean page
unlocked and wait on this bit with acquire semantics if the page is
locked:
- try_page_mte_tagging() - lock the page for tagging, return true if it
can be tagged, false if already tagged. No acquire semantics if it
returns true (PG_mte_tagged not set) as there is no serialisation with
a previous set_page_mte_tagged().
- set_page_mte_tagged() - set PG_mte_tagged with release semantics.
The two-bit locking is based on Peter Collingbourne's idea.
