More thoughts about that.
Making this conditional on !sme_active() is not the best idea. I'd rather
remove that whole thing and make it unconditional so the code pathes get
always exercised and any subtle wreckage is detected on a broader base and
not only on that hard to access and debug SME capable machine owned by Joe
User.
