[PATCH v2 0/6] add more tests to MTE kselftests

This is a series which refactors and then adds some extra tests for MTE
in the kselftest framework.

The issue that these tests are for was was fixed by Robin in
295cf156231c ("arm64: Avoid premature usercopy failure") and based on a
simplified example by Catalin [1].

They test some combinations of pointer offsets, sizes and syscalls to
exercise different paths in the kernel.

Changes since v1 [2]:
  - add a page_sz to the tests, for non-4K kernels
  - use loops to generate more tests and avoid long lines

Thanks,
Joey
