[RFC PATCH v2 33/41] arm64/sve: Wire up vector length control prctl() calls

This patch provides implementation for the PR_SVE_SET_VL and
PR_SVE_GET_VL prctls, which allow a task to set and query its
vector length and associated control flags (although no flags are
defined in this patch).
Currently any thread can set its VL, allowing a mix of VLs within
a single process -- this behaviour will be refined in susequent
patches.
