Otherwise, this seems sensible, since by definition no code that isn't
switching task contexts should be calling this directly.

Rather makes me wonder
why it wasn't static in the first place.  This might have arisen from
splitting out a backend function from something else that isn't static,
or maybe I was trying to do this directy from KVM.  The notion of non-
task context that the KVM now uses is newer than the original SVE code.

Anyway, assuming you've grepped and tried to build with KVM at least
(so, defconfig):
