> I thought of doing that too , so can prefix these warnings with 'mte builtin' if that's what you meant. But the intrinsic called kind of names same thing (__arm_mte_..).
"Builtin" or even "function" (fixed up to be grammatical) would suffice if you don't like the repetition.

> The builtin name (e.g. _mte_irg) is reflecting the instruction that implements the otherwise meaningful ACLE names  (mte_create_tag). Its just that the instruction names are sometimes cryptic (e.g. stg, ldg). I could change the names to __builtin_arm_create_tag etc and push the meaningful name -> insn level name to intrinsic level or further down but that would mean lots of name changes to current patch and tests. 
OK, sounds reasonable to leave it as is then.

Stray space here between '(' and 'unsigned', BTW.
