Hi Will,

sorry for the late reply but I am on sabbatical :)

The document that you are pointing out covers the userspace support, this series
introduces the in-kernel support only for asymmetric MTE. The userspace bits for
asymm will be added with a future series.

The confusion comes from the fact, as Peter correctly pointed already, that I
forgot to mention this vital info in the cover letter. Sorry about that I will
make sure that this is addressed in v2.

Thanks!
