Thanks James. I got the error without swap enabled. Just booted Debian
under Qemu with 256MB of RAM (no graphics), did an 'ls -lR /' and it
triggered shortly after. There's no MTE used in user-space.

==================================================================

It looks like it always happens on read. Something updated the tag in
page->flags for an existing page (or repainted the page, though less
likely as I think the page is in use).

I'm surprised that even without MTE in user-space, we still get
PG_mte_tagged (arch_2) set. Time for more printks.
