KFENCE does not currently support KASAN hardware tags. As a result, the
two features are incompatible when enabled simultaneously.

Given that MTE provides deterministic protection and KFENCE is a
sampling-based debugging tool, prioritize the stronger hardware
protections. Disable KFENCE initialization and free the pre-allocated
pool if KASAN hardware tags are detected to ensure the system maintains
the security guarantees provided by MTE.
