This looks good overall except for one comment inline.

----------------
I am a little apprehensive about this AddressDiff function. AArch64 virtual address is either 48 bits or 52 bits. MTE start from 56th bit and I believe bits (48 - 55) will be either set zero (for user address) and set to one for kernel addresses. 
I am not sure if there is an interface available for us to know if VA is 48 or 52 bits. What do you think how should we manage this here.
