[PATCH v4] arm64: kasan: mte: move GCR_EL1 switch to task switch when KASAN disabled
From: Peter Collingbourne <hidden>
Date: 2021-09-24 01:10:15
It is not necessary to write to GCR_EL1 on every kernel entry and exit when HW tag-based KASAN is disabled because the kernel will not execute any IRG instructions in that mode. Since accessing GCR_EL1 can be expensive on some microarchitectures, avoid doing so by moving the access to task switch when HW tag-based KASAN is disabled.
