This patchset goes on top of:
1. Vincenzo's async support patches [1], and
2. "kasan: untag addresses for KFENCE" fix [2] (already in mm).

This patchset makes the HW_TAGS mode more efficient, mostly by reworking
poisoning approaches and simplifying/inlining some internal helpers.
With this change, the overhead of HW_TAGS annotations excluding setting
and checking memory tags is ~3%. The performance impact caused by tags
will be unknown until we have hardware that supports MTE.
As a side-effect, this patchset speeds up generic KASAN by ~15%.
