Either the memory belongs to the dumped area, in which case we don't
want to tag (the dumped area has the same tag as malloc internal data
so tagging is unnecessary, but chunks there may not have the right
alignment for the tag granule), or the memory will be unmapped
immediately (and thus tagging is not useful).
