We should need to squash into "mm/gup: remove task_struct pointer for all gup
code" with:

diff --git a/arch/arm64/kernel/mte.c b/arch/arm64/kernel/mte.c

-               ret = get_user_pages_remote(tsk, mm, addr, 1, gup_flags,

                        break;

Seems to be a new caller merged recently, so it got left behind during the
rebases...  Sorry for not noticing that.

Thanks,
