arm64: kasan: Revert "arm64: mte: reset the page tag in page->flags"

This reverts commit e5b8d9218951e59df986f627ec93569a0d22149b.

Pages mapped in user-space with PROT_MTE have the allocation tags either
zeroed or copied/restored to some user values. In order for the kernel
to access such pages via page_address(), resetting the tag in
page->flags was necessary. This tag resetting was deferred to
set_pte_at() -> mte_sync_page_tags() but it can race with another CPU
reading the flags (via page_to_virt()):

P0 (mte_sync_page_tags):	P1 (memcpy from virt_to_page):
				  Rflags!=0xff
  Wflags=0xff
  DMB (doesn't help)
  Wtags=0
				  Rtags=0   // fault

Since now the post_alloc_hook() function resets the page->flags tag when
unpoisoning is skipped for user pages (including the __GFP_ZEROTAGS
case), revert the arm64 commit calling page_kasan_tag_reset().
