This lets us avoid doing unnecessary work on hardware that does not
support MTE, and will allow us to freely use MTE instructions in the
code called by mte_thread_switch().
Since this would mean that we do a redundant check in
mte_check_tfsr_el1(), remove it and add two checks now required in its
callers. This also avoids an unnecessary DSB+ISB sequence on the syscall
exit path for hardware not supporting MTE.

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.
