[PATCH] arm64/sme: Drop inaccurate documentation of streaming mode switches

[Mark Brown]

The SME ABI documentation contains an inaccurate description of the
architectural streaming mode entry/exit behaviour, just remove it since
this is better documented by the architecture or with the rest of the
documentation for the specific software interfaces concerned.

Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie at kernel.org>

The rest of the documentation needs more thorough review, but it seems
wise to remove the incorrect statement to avoid confusion.
