You're replacing the only user of this, so please just s/_asm_extable/_asm_extable_uaccess_mc/ in the existing macro and save the rest of the churn.

Furthermore, how come you're not similarly updating user_stp, given that you *are* updating the other stores in copy_to_user?

Similarly, I think we can just update user_ldst itself. The two instances that you're not replacing here are bogus anyway, and deserve to be fixed with the patch below first.

Should we be checking EC to make sure it's a data abort - and thus FSC is valid - in the first place? I'm a little fuzzy on all the possible paths into fixup_exception(), and it's not entirely obvious whether this is actually safe or not.

Thanks,
Robin.

Subject: [PATCH] arm64: mte: Clean up user tag accessors

Invoking user_ldst to explicitly add a post-increment of 0 is silly.
Just use a normal USER() annotation and save the redundant instruction.
