Subject: alloc_tag: expose boot-time compression configuration
Date: Wed, 5 Aug 2026 17:29:52 +0000

Currently, userspace has limited visibility into the exact active runtime
state of memory allocation profiling and its page extension compression
('sysctl.vm.mem_profiling={0|1|never}[,compressed]').

While reading the sysctl provides basic on/off status, it is currently
impossible for userspace to natively determine whether page-tag
compression was successfully enabled without scraping dmesg boot logs.

Add a new read-only sysctl representing how compression was configured
at boot time.
