If FEAT_MTE2 is disabled via the arm64.nomte command line argument on a
CPU that claims to support FEAT_MTE2, the kernel will use Tagged Normal
in the MAIR. If we interpret arm64.nomte to mean that the CPU does not
in fact implement FEAT_MTE2, setting the system register like this may
lead to UNSPECIFIED behavior. Fix it by arranging for MAIR to be set
in the C function cpu_enable_mte which is called based on the sanitized
version of the system register.
There is no need for the rest of the MTE-related system register
initialization to happen from assembly, with the exception of TCR_EL1,
which must be set to include at least TBI1 because the secondary CPUs
access KASan-allocated data structures early. Therefore, make the TCR_EL1
initialization unconditional and move the rest of the initialization to
cpu_enable_mte so that we no longer have a dependency on the unsanitized
ID register value.

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.
