If MTE is disabled (for example, from the kernel command line with the arm64.nomte option), the tag storage pages behave just like normal pages, because they will never be used to store tags. If that's the case, expose them to the page allocator as MIGRATE_MOVABLE pages. MIGRATE_MOVABLE has been chosen because the bulk of memory allocations comes from userspace, and the migratetype for those allocations is MIGRATE_MOVABLE. MIGRATE_RECLAIMABLE and MIGRATE_UNMOVABLE requests can still use the pages as a fallback.
