I suspect the expensive part here is checking the two flags, as untagged_addr()
seems to always just add a sbfx instruction. Would this work?

#ifdef CONFIG_ARM64_TAGGED_ADDR_ABI
#define access_ok(ptr, size) __access_ok(untagged_addr(ptr), (size))
#else // the else path is the default, this can be left out.
#define access_ok(ptr, size) __access_ok((ptr), (size))
#endif
