FYI: I see the following warning from 'allnoconfig' with these patches
applied:


arch/arm64/kernel/fpsimd.c:676:13: warning: unused function 'sve_to_fpsimd' [-Wunused-function]
  676 | static void sve_to_fpsimd(struct task_struct *task)
      |             ^~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 warning generated.


It's easy enough to move that inside the CONFIG_ARM64_SVE guards, but
it's a little strange that fpsimd_to_sve() is more widely referenced
and harder to move.
