MTE support needs to be optionally disabled in runtime for HW issue workaround, FW development and some evaluation works on system resource and performance. This patch makes two changes: (1) moves init of tag-allocation bits(ATA/ATA0) to cpu_enable_mte() as not cached in TLB. (2) allows ID_AA64PFR1_EL1.MTE to be overridden on its shadow value by giving "arm64.nomte" on cmdline. When the feature value is off, ATA and TCF will not set and the related functionalities are accordingly suppressed.

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.
