arm64: mte: Allow PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS access to the zero page
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.
