[PATCH] aarch64: Use future HWCAP2_MTE in ifunc resolver

[Szabolcs Nagy]

Make glibc MTE-safe on systems where MTE is available. This allows
using heap tagging with an LD_PRELOADed malloc implementation that
enables MTE. We don't document this as guaranteed contract yet, so
glibc may not be MTE safe when HWCAP2_MTE is set (older glibcs
certainly aren't). This is mainly for testing and debugging.

The HWCAP flag is not exposed in public headers until Linux adds it
to its uapi. The HWCAP value reservation will be in Linux 5.9.

---
I'd like to commit this for 2.32, it is safe even if the hwcap value
changes because there is no mte safety guarantee (but there is no
reason for linux to change the value).

tested in qemu.
