This is actually independent of the tagged address ABI. For siginfo data 
structures read via `ptrace(PTRACE_GETSIGINFO)` we will always have the tag in 
`si_addr` provided that the kernel is new enough. It's only the signal delivery 
via `sigaction` where the user program needs to opt in (via 
`SA_EXPOSE_TAGBITS`), and that is again independent of the tagged address ABI.

Comment at: lldb/test/API/linux/aarch64/mte_tag_faults/main.c:38
+  // Tag ptr with 10
+  char *tagged_buf = __arm_mte_create_random_tag(buf, 1 << 9);
+  // Set first allocation tag to 10
----------------
This seems like a bit of a roundabout way to set the address tag to 10. Why not 
just set it directly? i.e.
```
char *tagged_buf = buf + (10ULL << 56);
```
Or wrap that in a function to make things more self documenting. Then you don't 
need to set the inclusion mask in the prctl call.
