[PATCH 24/35] arm64: mte: Switch GCR_EL1 in kernel entry and exit

From: Vincenzo Frascino <vincenzo.frascino at arm.com>

When MTE is present, the GCR_EL1 register contains the tags mask that
allows to exclude tags from the random generation via the IRG instruction.

With the introduction of the new Tag-Based KASAN API that provides a
mechanism to reserve tags for special reasons, the MTE implementation
has to make sure that the GCR_EL1 setting for the kernel does not affect
the userspace processes and viceversa.

Save and restore the kernel/user mask in GCR_EL1 in kernel entry and exit.
