When we try to visit the pagemap of a tagged userspace pointer, we find
that the start_vaddr is not correct because of the tag.
To fix it, we should untag the usespace pointers in pagemap_read().

I tested with 5.10-rc4 and the issue remains.

My test code is baed on [1]:

A userspace pointer which has been tagged by 0xb4: 0xb400007662f541c8

=== userspace program ===

uint64 OsLayer::VirtualToPhysical(void *vaddr) {
        uint64 frame, paddr, pfnmask, pagemask;
        int pagesize = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE);
        off64_t off = ((uintptr_t)vaddr) / pagesize * 8; // off = 
0xb400007662f541c8 / pagesize * 8 = 0x5a00003b317aa0
        int fd = open(kPagemapPath, O_RDONLY);
        ...

        if (lseek64(fd, off, SEEK_SET) != off || read(fd, &frame, 8) != 8) {
                int err = errno;
                string errtxt = ErrorString(err);
                if (fd >= 0)
                        close(fd);
                return 0;
        }
...
}

=== kernel fs/proc/task_mmu.c ===

static ssize_t pagemap_read(struct file *file, char __user *buf,
                size_t count, loff_t *ppos)
{
        ...
        src = *ppos;
        svpfn = src / PM_ENTRY_BYTES; // svpfn == 0xb400007662f54
        start_vaddr = svpfn << PAGE_SHIFT; // start_vaddr == 0xb400007662f54000
        end_vaddr = mm->task_size;

        /* watch out for wraparound */
        // svpfn == 0xb400007662f54
        // (mm->task_size >> PAGE) == 0x8000000
        if (svpfn > mm->task_size >> PAGE_SHIFT) // the condition is true 
because of the tag 0xb4
                start_vaddr = end_vaddr;

        ret = 0;
        while (count && (start_vaddr < end_vaddr)) { // we cannot visit correct 
entry because start_vaddr is set to end_vaddr
                int len;
                unsigned long end;
                ...
        }
        ...
}
