Mark Brown 21614ba608 arm64/ptrace: Ensure that SME is set up for target when writing SSVE state 
commit 5d0a8d2fba upstream.

When we use NT_ARM_SSVE to either enable streaming mode or change the
vector length for a process we do not currently do anything to ensure that
there is storage allocated for the SME specific register state.  If the
task had not previously used SME or we changed the vector length then
the task will not have had TIF_SME set or backing storage for ZA/ZT
allocated, resulting in inconsistent register sizes when saving state
and spurious traps which flush the newly set register state.

We should set TIF_SME to disable traps and ensure that storage is
allocated for ZA and ZT if it is not already allocated.  This requires
modifying sme_alloc() to make the flush of any existing register state
optional so we don't disturb existing state for ZA and ZT.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
