commitc4c597f1b3upstream. The mte_sync_page_tags() function sets PG_mte_tagged if it initializes page tags. Then we return to mte_sync_tags(), which sets PG_mte_tagged again. At best, this is redundant. However, it is possible for mte_sync_page_tags() to return without having initialized tags for the page, i.e. in the case where check_swap is true (non-compound page), is_swap_pte(old_pte) is false and pte_is_tagged is false. So at worst, we set PG_mte_tagged on a page with uninitialized tags. This can happen if, for example, page migration causes a PTE for an untagged page to be replaced. If the userspace program subsequently uses mprotect() to enable PROT_MTE for that page, the uninitialized tags will be exposed to userspace. Fix it by removing the redundant call to set_page_mte_tagged().

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.
