Catalin Marinas f3ba50a7a1 arm64: Add support for user sub-page fault probing
With MTE, even if the pte allows an access, a mismatched tag somewhere
within a page can still cause a fault. Select ARCH_HAS_SUBPAGE_FAULTS if
MTE is enabled and implement the probe_subpage_writeable() function.
Note that get_user() is sufficient for the writeable MTE check since the
same tag mismatch fault would be triggered by a read. The caller of
probe_subpage_writeable() will need to check the pte permissions
(put_user, GUP).

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.
