I know there's ctx->__hyp_running_vcpu but AFAICT that is only valid with the host context.
We have per-CPU variables for the host context. If ctx->__hyp_running_vcpu
is non NULL, you know you're on the host.

You mentioned having the ability to create turn off the tag checks at times, but I don't see that in this patch (and I'm not sure we want that either).Given that this is now highly unlikely to be merged for v5.11, I'll rebase onto of the KASAN MTE series and double check exactly what happens. My thought was that it should be as simple as setting TCO, but your previous comment about moving the save/restore into assembler might be wise in case the compiler starts playing with TCO itself.
Indeed. Thanks, M. -- Jazz is not dead. It just smells funny...
