Currently as part of handling a SME access trap we flush the SVE register
state. This is not needed and would corrupt register state if the task has
access to the SVE registers already. For non-streaming mode accesses the
required flushing will be done in the SVE access trap. For streaming
mode SVE register accesses the architecture guarantees that the register
state will be flushed when streaming mode is entered or exited so there is
no need for us to do so. Simply remove the register initialisation.

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.
