The ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS) implementation checks whether the user
page has valid tags (mapped with PROT_MTE) by testing the PG_mte_tagged
page flag. If this bit is cleared, ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS) returns
-EIO.
A newly created (PROT_MTE) mapping points to the zero page which had its
tags zeroed during cpu_enable_mte(). If there were no prior writes to
this mapping, ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS) fails with -EIO since the zero
page does not have the PG_mte_tagged flag set.
Set PG_mte_tagged on the zero page when its tags are cleared during
boot. In addition, to avoid ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS) succeeding on
!PROT_MTE mappings pointing to the zero page, change the
__access_remote_tags() check to (vm_flags & VM_MTE) instead of
PG_mte_tagged.
