The removal of the vma linked list means tsk->mm->mmap and vma->vm_next
are no longer usable.  for_each_mte_vma() could be altered to take a vma
iterator:

#define for_each_mte_vma(vmi, vma)					\
	if (system_supports_mte())					\
		for_each_vma(vmi, vma)					\
			if (vma->vm_flags & VM_MTE)


Then used as such:
 VMA_ITERATOR(vmi, tsk->mm, 0);
...

for_each_mte_vma(vmi, vma) {
...
}

Where might I find a branch containing this patch?  Is it a stand alone
or part of a larger series?
