That has a few problems, including being an ABI change for tasks not using the
relaxed tag ABI and not working for 52-bit VAs.
If we really want to relax the tag checking aspect, there are simpler options,
including variations on Ard's approach above.

It's just sign-extension/canonical addressing, except bits [63:56] are
configurable between a few uses, so the achitecture says bit 55 is the one to
look at in all configurations to figure out if an address is high/low (in
addition to checking the remaining bits are canonical).

Mark.
