Subject: arm64: mte: ensure CONFIG_ARM64_PAN is enabled with MTE
The uaccess routines like get/put_user() rely on the user TCF0 mode
setting for tag checking. However, if CONFIG_ARM64_PAN is disabled, these
routines would use the standard LDR/STR instructions and therefore the
kernel TCF mode. In 5.10, the kernel TCF==0, so no tag checking, but this
will change with the in-kernel MTE support.
Make ARM64_MTE depend on ARM64_PAN.
