[PATCH v4 5/5] arm64: mte: Inline mte_assign_mem_tag_range()

From: Vincenzo Frascino
Date: Mon Jan 18 2021 - 13:34:27 EST


mte_assign_mem_tag_range() is called on production KASAN HW hot
paths. It makes sense to inline it in an attempt to reduce the
overhead.

Inline mte_assign_mem_tag_range() based on the indications provided at
[1].
