An arm64 'allmodconfig' build fails with GCC due to use of a C++-style
comment for the new SVE vector granule 'enum perf_event_arm_regs' entry:
| /usr/include/asm/perf_regs.h:42:26: error: C++ style comments are not allowed in ISO C90
Use good ol' /* */ comment syntax to keep things rosey.

Dwarf based unwinding in a function that pushes SVE registers onto
the stack requires the unwinder to know the length of the SVE register
to calculate the stack offsets correctly. This was added to the Arm
specific Dwarf spec as the VG pseudo register[1].
Add the vector length at position 46 if it's requested by userspace and
SVE is supported. If it's not supported then fail to open the event.
The vector length must be on each sample because it can be changed
at runtime via a prctl or ptrace call. Also by adding it as a register
rather than a separate attribute, minimal changes will be required in an
unwinder that already indexes into the register list.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

This patch implements the functions required for the perf registers API,
allowing the perf tool to interface kernel register dumps with libunwind
in order to provide userspace backtracing.
Compat mode is also supported.
Only the general purpose user space registers are exported, i.e.:
PERF_REG_ARM_X0,
...
PERF_REG_ARM_X28,
PERF_REG_ARM_FP,
PERF_REG_ARM_LR,
PERF_REG_ARM_SP,
PERF_REG_ARM_PC
and not the PERF_REG_ARM_V* registers.
