If MTE_frac is masked out unconditionally then the guest will always see ID_AA64PFR1_EL1_MTE_frac as 0. However, a value of 0 when ID_AA64PFR1_EL1_MTE is 2 indicates that MTE_ASYNC is supported. Hence, for a host with ID_AA64PFR1_EL1_MTE==2 and ID_AA64PFR1_EL1_MTE_frac==0xf (MTE_ASYNC unsupported) the guest would see MTE_ASYNC advertised as supported whilst the host does not support it. Hence, expose the sanitised value of MTE_frac to the guest and user-space. As MTE_frac was previously hidden, always 0, and KVM must accept values from KVM provided by user-space, when ID_AA64PFR1_EL1.MTE is 2 allow user-space to set ID_AA64PFR1_EL1.MTE_frac to 0. However, ignore it to avoid incorrectly claiming hardware support for MTE_ASYNC in the guest. Note that linux does not check the value of ID_AA64PFR1_EL1_MTE_frac and wrongly assumes that MTE async faults can be generated even on hardware that does nto support them. This issue is not addressed here.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
