[PATCH v2 03/13] arm64/fpsimd: Remove redundant SVE trap manipulation

When task_fpsimd_load() loads the saved FPSIMD/SVE/SME state, it
configures EL0 SVE traps by calling sve_user_{enable,disable}(). This is
unnecessary, and this is suspicious/confusing as task_fpsimd_load() does
not configure EL0 SME traps.
All calls to task_fpsimd_load() are followed by a call to
fpsimd_bind_task_to_cpu(), where the latter configures traps for SVE and
SME dependent upon the current values of TIF_SVE and TIF_SME, overriding
any trap configuration performed by task_fpsimd_load().
The calls to sve_user_{enable,disable}() calls in task_fpsimd_load()
have been redundant (though benign) since they were introduced in
commit:
a0136be443d51803 ("arm64/fpsimd: Load FP state based on recorded data type")
Remove the unnecessary and confusing SVE trap manipulation.
