IIUC you need this per-CPU (core loses context on suspend-to-RAM but also
CPUidle, S2R is single threaded but CPUidle runs on every core idle
thread).

Unless you sync/report it on enter/exit (please note: I am not familiar
with MTE so it is just a, perhaps silly, suggestion to avoid
saving/restoring it).
