Mark Rutland 45fd86986b arm64/fpsimd: Remove redundant SVE trap manipulation
When task_fpsimd_load() loads the saved FPSIMD/SVE/SME state, it
configures EL0 SVE traps by calling sve_user_{enable,disable}(). This is
unnecessary, and this is suspicious/confusing as task_fpsimd_load() does
not configure EL0 SME traps.

All calls to task_fpsimd_load() are followed by a call to
fpsimd_bind_task_to_cpu(), where the latter configures traps for SVE and
SME dependent upon the current values of TIF_SVE and TIF_SME, overriding
any trap configuration performed by task_fpsimd_load().

The calls to sve_user_{enable,disable}() calls in task_fpsimd_load()
have been redundant (though benign) since they were introduced in
commit:

  a0136be443 ("arm64/fpsimd: Load FP state based on recorded data type")

Remove the unnecessary and confusing SVE trap manipulation.

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 reStructuredText 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.
