We use is_ttbr0_addr() in noinstr code, but as it's only marked as
inline, it's theoretically possible for the compiler to place it
out-of-line and instrument it, which would be problematic.

Mark is_ttbr0_addr() as __always_inline such that that can safely be
used from noinstr code. For consistency, do the same to is_ttbr1_addr().
Note that while is_ttbr1_addr() calls arch_kasan_reset_tag(), this is a
macro (and its callees are either macros or __always_inline), so there
is not a risk of transient instrumentation.

Applied to arm64 (for-next/trivial), thanks!
