The arch_prctl() extensions is generic enough that it should be good.

The untagged_addr() macro looks like this from one of the callers:

        start = untagged_addr(mm, start);
ffffffff814d39bb:       48 8b 8d 40 ff ff ff    mov    -0xc0(%rbp),%rcx
ffffffff814d39c2:       48 89 f2                mov    %rsi,%rdx
ffffffff814d39c5:       48 c1 fa 3f             sar    $0x3f,%rdx
ffffffff814d39c9:       48 0b 91 50 03 00 00    or     0x350(%rcx),%rdx
ffffffff814d39d0:       48 21 f2                and    %rsi,%rdx
ffffffff814d39d3:       49 89 d6                mov    %rdx,%r14

Can this overhead of a few additional instructions be removed for
platforms that don't have LAM feature? I haven't measured how much
overhead this effectively contributes to in real, but wonder if it is
worth optimizing for non-LAM platforms.

Regards,
Bharata.
