[RFC PATCH 09/10] arm64/sve: Enable default vector length control via procfs

[Dave Martin]

This patch makes the default SVE vector length at exec() for user tasks
controllable via procfs, in /proc/cpu/sve_default_vector_length.

Limited effort is made to return sensible errors when writing the
procfs file, and anyway the value gets silently clamped to the
maximum VL supported by the platform: users should close and reopen
the file and read back to see the result.

Caveats:

 * /proc may not be the correct place for this (but it's not clear
   where in sysfs it should go either, and it's a global control with
   no corresponding kobject)

 * There seems to be no suitable framework for writable controls of
   this sort in /proc (unlike debugfs or sysfs).  So, I had to write a
   suspiciously large amount of code -- I may have missed an obvious
   trick :P
