mm: Introduce untagged_addr_remote()
untagged_addr() removes tags/metadata from the address and brings it to the canonical form. The helper is implemented on arm64 and sparc. Both of them do untagging based on global rules. However, Linear Address Masking (LAM) on x86 introduces per-process settings for untagging. As a result, untagged_addr() is now only suitable for untagging addresses for the current proccess. The new helper untagged_addr_remote() has to be used when the address targets remote process. It requires the mmap lock for target mm to be taken. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
