   f620d66af316 ("arm64: mte: Do not flag the zero page as PG_mte_tagged")

removed the PG_mte_tagged flag from the zero page, but missed a KVM code
path that may set this flag on the zero page when it is used in a
stage-2 CoW mapping of anonymous memory.

So disregard the zero page explicitly in sanitise_mte_tags().
