Ah, I see, that top 4 bits are zeroed by do_tag_check_fault(). When this
was added, the only tag faults were generated for user addresses.

Anyway, I'd rather fix it in there based on bit 55, something like (only
compile-tested):

diff --git a/arch/arm64/mm/fault.c b/arch/arm64/mm/fault.c

 	return 0;
 }
