Re: [PATCH v8 1/3] arm64: mte: make the per-task SCTLR_EL1 field usable elsewhere

In an upcoming change we are going to introduce per-task SCTLR_EL1
bits for PAC. Move the existing per-task SCTLR_EL1 field out of the
MTE-specific code so that we will be able to use it from both the
PAC and MTE code paths and make the task switching code more efficient.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/pac-set-get-enabled-keys).

Peter, can you please have a look and give it a try as part of the arm64
for-next/core branch? I rebased your patches on top of the
for-next/mte-async-kernel-mode branch as this was adding more code to
mte_thread_switch(), so I kept the function for now.

Thanks.
