[PATCH RFC v2 12/27] arm64: mte: Add tag storage pages to the MIGRATE_CMA migratetype

From: Alexandru Elisei
Date: Sun Nov 19 2023 - 11:59:16 EST


Add the MTE tag storage pages to the MIGRATE_CMA migratetype, which allows
the page allocator to manage them like regular pages.

Ths migratype lends the pages some very desirable properties:

* They cannot be longterm pinned, meaning they will always be migratable.

* The pages can be allocated explicitely by using their PFN (with
alloc_contig_range()) when they are needed to store tags.
