[PATCH v14 1/4] asm-generic,arm64: create task variant of access_ok

[Gregory Price]

On arm64, access_ok makes adjustments to pointers based on whether
memory tagging is enabled for a task (ARM MTE). When leveraging ptrace,
it's possible for a task to enable/disable various kernel features (such
as syscall user dispatch) which require user points as arguments.

To enable Task A to set these features via ptrace with Task B's
pointers, a task variant of access_ok is required for architectures with
features such as memory tagging.

If the architecture does not implement task_access_ok, the operation
reduces to access_ok and the task argument is discarded.
