It has been reported that the tag setting operation on newly-allocated
pages can cause the page flags to be corrupted when performed
concurrently with other flag updates as a result of the use of
non-atomic operations. Fix the problem by using a compare-exchange
loop to update the tag.

Fixes: 2813b9c02962 ("kasan, mm, arm64: tag non slab memory allocated via pagealloc")
Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org

v3:
- use try_cmpxchg() as suggested by Peter Zijlstra on another
  patch

v2:
- use READ_ONCE()

FWIW, try_cmpxchg() doesn't seem to be doing annotated atomic accesses
when accessing old_flags, so using READ_ONCE() in page_kasan_tag_set()
seems pointless after all.

Ah, nevermind. For a second I thought that try_cmpxchg() is actually
accessing page->flags through its second argument.
