OK, I'm going to take 1, 2 and 12 into target-arm.next for 6.0, and we'll
defer the rest. AIUI the bug fixed by the remaining patches is basically
"we didn't do some tag checks we should have done in a corner case of
misaligned accesses that span two differently tagged regions", and I think
that's not a terrible bug to leave in 6.0, compared to the risk of breaking
MTE more seriously while fixing it.
