[RFC PATCH 0/5] target/arm: Add MTE support to KVM guest

[Haibo Xu <haibo.xu@linaro.org>]

This series add support for MTE(Memory Tagging Extension)[1]
in KVM guest. It's based on Steven Price's kernel KVM patches
V7[2], and has been tested to ensure that test case[3] can be
passed in a KVM guest. Basic pre-copy migration test also passed
between two MTE enabled kvm guest. 

This is a RFC patch series becuase:
(1) Need to add some arm MTE specific codes to the ram migration
    loop. There may be better way to do that in a more abstract way.
(2) Only pre-copy migration is supported and tested currently,
    post-copy as well as compress/zero page migration are still WIP.
    
All kinds of feedbacks are very welcomed, especially for the migration
support. 

Note:
(1) To support MTE migration, tags for one page are appended to  
    the page data during ram save iteration which make it easier
    to sync the page data and tags.
