There are a number of paths by which the TBI is still intact
for user-only in the SVE helpers.

Because we currently always set TBI for user-only, we do not
need to pass down the actual TBI setting from above, and we
can remove the top byte in the inner-most primitives, so that
none are forgotten.  Moreover, this keeps the "dirty" pointer
around at the higher levels, where we need it for any MTE checking.

Since the normal case, especially for user-only, goes through
RAM, this clearing merely adds two insns per page lookup, which
will be completely in the noise.

Can we have an assert() somewhere suitable that TBI is set?
That way if we ever do have an SVE-capable linux-user which
doesn't set TBI for some reason we'll get a useful reminder
that we need to fix something.

Otherwise

At what level would you like such an assert?
At present we have, in arm_cpu_reset,

      /*
       * Enable TBI0 and TBI1.  While the real kernel only enables TBI0,
       * turning on both here will produce smaller code and otherwise
       * make no difference to the user-level emulation.
       */
      env->cp15.tcr_el[1].raw_tcr = (3ULL << 37);

I don't particularly care, as long as we get notified if our
assumption that TBI is always set gets broken (ie we change
that bit of CPU reset code for some reason).
