6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Catalin Marinas catalin.marinas@arm.com
PROT_MTE (memory tagging extensions) is not supported on all user mmap() types for various reasons (memory attributes, backing storage, CoW handling). The arm64 arch_validate_flags() function checks whether the VM_MTE_ALLOWED flag has been set for a vma during mmap(), usually by arch_calc_vm_flag_bits().
Linux prior to 6.13 does not support PROT_MTE hugetlb mappings. This was added by commit 25c17c4b55de ("hugetlb: arm64: add mte support"). However, earlier kernels inadvertently set VM_MTE_ALLOWED on (MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB) mappings by only checking for MAP_ANONYMOUS.
Explicitly check MAP_HUGETLB in arch_calc_vm_flag_bits() and avoid setting VM_MTE_ALLOWED for such mappings.
