[PATCH 3/5] arm64: mte: Define the number of bytes for storing the tags in a page

Wed Dec 8 04:19:39 PST 2021


Rather than explicitly calculating the number of bytes for a compact tag
storage format corresponding to a page, just add a MTE_PAGE_TAG_STORAGE
macro. With the current MTE implementation of 4 bits per tag, we store
2 tags in a byte.
